Don’t let them go for too long. My rotator cuff was so torn I had to lift my right arm up with my left hand to use it. Get thee to a doctor!!

"Get thee to a doctor!!"

I see a sports doctor for my rotator cuff problem, but surgery isn't recommended yet. I would have to think twice about any future surgeries as I've already had four abdominal surgeries since 2010, and may have to have more surgery to repair another incisional hernia. My sister-in-law had her rotator cuff operated on, and she had to have a cast on, plus couldn't lay down to sleep for over a month. She had to sleep sitting up on a lounger, which is something I would have a very hard time doing.
