Bruce is back to doing what he loves in the mountains of beautiful Colorado thanks to a total shoulder replacement with Dr. Tito Liotta and ExactechGPS.
We know that shoulder replacement surgery is a major decision. You may be reading and thinking a lot about it. You may be asking yourself if this kind of surgery is worth it, or if it is your only option. Your doctor may suggest other ways to manage your arthritis.
These may include:
- Direct heat
- Lifestyle changes such as weight loss or exercise
- Over-the-counter medicines for pain and swelling
- Prescription medicines
- Injections (shots)
- Physical therapy
When these treatments no longer help you, it may be time to consider shoulder replacement surgery, like these patients did.
