I hurt my upper arm playing basketball. I have discomfort but I can still do push ups. I try lifting a few bags of groceries from the back of my truck and it does hurt. It doesn’t hurt to carry them but trying to lift them out the back hurts. Do you think I could have possibly tore my cuff?

I've been to see my local physio normally a great guy but we're getting nowhere. The pain is now adding down towards my elbow for some reason. Been to the physio 6 or 7 times now. He's now recommended. Go and see my doctor. Get a ultrasound x-ray and maybe a cortisone injection. I can lift heavy things. It's just the small things like putting the torno cover back on the back of the truck, Or opening a jar. I use a bandsaw at work and after while the pushing through the saw starts to pain up. Be interesting to see what it is. Rotor cuff tendon bursitis etc.

Some ppl can't even get mri's. Anyone with metal implants can't have one unless it's titanium.

The muscle that holds the ball of the shoulder in got completely torn. Pre surgery it felt like muscle spasms that would force the should partially go out for several minutes. Not fun, pretty scary to wake up to.

Please public service announcement on crossing our legs. I am 61 and a candidate for left knee replacement. I have crossed my leg since I was a kid. My left ankle usually rested on my right knee. My left knees tendons are stretched and I have massive arthritis on the inside of my knee surfaces. You could literally save millions of people the pain of having their knee replaced. Because it's the 10 years before the knee gets replaced that you truly suffer

How do you fix it 😭 all my joints do this but I’ve never had an injury. Sprained my wrist and my ankle today doing normal things

Well….. kinda depends if there are damaged ligaments and tendons that need surgical repair to be anatomically correct again. You can strengthen as many muscles as you want but if you don’t fix that joint then it’s not going to do shit haha

I separated mine in military. No xray. No "put if back in." Wrapped me in ace bandage for several weeks then said I was good. Woke up in pain every day since. 40 years later random xray showed it was broken collar bone.

I was diagnosed with calcific tendinopathy in my hip and left gluteus medius tendinopathy. I declined injections and was given physical therapy. The pain is unbelievable.

It’s fucking terrible!

You had a stroke, bro that’s a whole different thing

Very informative. Fun fact- while watching this video, I flexed my shoulder and it hurt for a second and I got real scared....

Thanks

It took five weeks for my son

If only you could do surgery for bones that go out weekly …. Daily …. Ha … EDS 🥲🥵😭

Do you believe in Jesus Christ and that He humbled himself from a throne of unapproachable light to a perfect, flawless man who died on a cross for your sins so you could be saved and have a personal relationship with Him?

Hi Dr. Kevin I have chronic bursitis I cant do pushing exercises like push ups.. I have pain with throwing ball do you have any advice?

Dr Kruse I recently tore my rotator cuff on my left side. This is the shoulder you repaired about 3-4 years ago. I now have a HMO insurance that you don’t take so I’m looking for an orthopedist that will take blue cross hmo, do you have any references? Thanks Terry Micalizio

Is it common to not give pain medication during the acute phase anymore? My husband had a bad bicycle accident and was thrown over a guard rail and down 4 feet fracturing his proximal humeral in 3 pieces. ER gave him 2 days worth of pain meds and ortho won't give him anything except ibuprofen. My husband has had 2 other surgeries and has never asked for a refill or even finished the pain meds he had so they have a record he doesn't abuse them. Just inhumane the way he is being treated so we are seeing a new doc Monday. I now feel more comfortable though about them not wanting to do surgery. He is a very active 73 year old and rides his bike about 24 miles a day so is very fit.

Where does a 270 degree labrum tear fall on this spectrum?

Valid question before surgery. Always good to consider all daily tasks.

And they are back at our hospital for another quick buck for us because of negligence

💯 on the symptoms. I had a great surgeon and have 95% use of arm.

He’s full of crap! I have had 3 shoulder surgeries, trust me most painful surgery ever , I can say this I’ve had like 12 spine surgeries fusions and all shoulder is the worse!

How long until you can start running after rotator cuff surgery in your opinion?

Your advice is the opposite of everything else I've heard.

I believe i tore both my cuffs in a truck accident a year ago. Do they ever heal on their own?

Mines only been hurting for 10 years

Looks new one hehe

This is how my mom taught me to put on bras when I was a kid. It's so much easier this way than to try to reach around to the back to clasp it blindly.

I have an untreated dislocation. Afraid it’s been far too long for me now..

what do you give and tell your patients to do during the "very painful" stage ? I am in that stage now

Hello,this content that you make is amazingly helpful. I wanted to ask,my shoulder especially the left one when i move it overhead and with anterior movements. It's not painful but it feels something is not fine. I have already had it checked but the orthopedic told me that im still growing and my bones haven't connected,which is true but not right about the above case. Any ideas what should i do? Thanks for the content . Keep it up.

How to cure miner tendinitis

Wrong

Yes they are! Dr. Kruse is a very highly skilled physician who treated my shoulder with surgery after we tried PT and injections. He is truly the only physician I would trust to work on my loved ones. So very happy that you have been doing the educational CZcams videos Dr. Kruse!! May God continue to bless you with favor and skills to bring relief to so many.

Your whole left face side is moving less.Either the matrix not be matrixing or have you had borreliosis?

You need a reality check. Plenty of excruciating pain; it's just a different kind. Doesn't mean it's less. Need a machine that inflicts the same pain on doctors that the patient feels. it's just a different kind. Just another excuse to undermedicate patients after surgery.

To my understanding when calcium enters the body it doesn't know where to go so this is how it ends up in areas it doesn't belong. Taking the vitamins K2 & D3 reduces this effect.

I do never had this before thanks for sharing

ima just chat this before he blows up on the internet

Thanks....

I've had both rotary cuffs operated on. It's a painful surgery. Definitely, I didn't sleep sitting up and used a pillow under my arm. Great advice.

Ridiculous! After rotator cuff repair you risk a re-tear if you don’t wear a sling!

Whoa I have always wondered why . Thank you for the information .

I like to shower during my shoulder surgeries. That's tough bruh.

OK well I had NY left shoulder relaxed 2 years ago and haven't got my arm back can't puck up anything constantly burning and electricity and I had the nerve block

Don't trust this guy

Talk about lower back pain.

Ah yes a shoulder replacement is small
