bone. This problem makes you feel a slight pain or a sharp pain which
depends on the tear, when you do some activities with your shoulder
or arm, such as lifting your arms, typing for a certain time, or brushing
your teeth.

recommended to do a certain physical exercise as the rotator cuff
tear treatment. The physical exercise will still need your doctor’s
supervision or an exact planning from a physical therapist. The
exercise is basically a combination of arm movements to gain your
arm strength.

of surgery for rotator cuff recovery: arthroscopic surgery, open
surgery, and mini open surgery. Each surgery will be advised based on

age and health history. Some of you can recover soon enough and do
the normal activities without any pain or surgery’s side effect. But,
there are cases that some of you need a physical therapy after the
surgery as your next rotator cuff treatment.

advice and the necessary treatment, your rotator cuff problem will be
resolved effectively.
