Tell me about recovery after primus joint replacement surgery to great toe

How much is each anchor ss

Which implant do you have?

Thank you so much for this inspiration! You and I have similar stories. In 1976, I separated my shoulder in a football game. Of course, back then-the coach pushed it back in. I played the next week. LOL, I have been lifting weights for 50 years and powerlifting for 23 years. Unfortunately, I had to retire because my shoulder got worse. I had a reverse shoulder procedure in December of 2022. However, I would like to get back to powerlifting, but I didn't have this type of joint put in.

Man, those surgeons are NOT gentle

I am not familiar with this type of shoulder replacement but I had total shoulder replacement at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in New York in Feb 2022 at age 64. It is now exactly 2 years later. Overall I am happy that I did it but my experiences are quite different than Rudy's as shown here. I have been an avid crossfit athlete since 2011 and returned to crossfit post-shoulder replacement after 6 months of physical therapy. I am not exactly pain-free but I do have much more range of motion than before the surgery. You will notice in this video, he does not show any lifts overhead (ie, press, snatch, overhead squat). These are not recommended at all after shoulder replacement. Pullups (palms facing forward ) are also not a good idea. I can now do chinups with no pain , it took a long time to get to that point. The only lift that I can do that is close to an overhead lift is landmine press which is somewhat overhead but at an angle with one end of the barbell anchored. I can do landmine presses with 120 lbs, that is the only overhead pressing that I can do. Sometimes I test true overhead pressing with a very light (10 lb) dumbell , that is a struggle. It is amazing how much more I can landmine press compared to overhead press. Rudy shows three lifts here: deadlfit, back squat, and bench press. My deadlift and squat are very close to the pre-replacement weights but my bench press is much lighter. I would stay away from heavy benching, my surgeon advised against it. Finally, it is important to consider the 2 general types of shoulder replacement: 1) total shoulder replacement (which is what I had) and 2) reverse total shoulder replacement. If an MRI shows that you have rotator cuff damage and need a shoulder replacement, they will do a reverse shoulder replacement. My understanding is that if you need a reverse shoulder replacement, your post-surgery weight lifting options will be much more reduced. I apologize for the long comment but I wanted to share my experiences with returning to weight lifting post shoulder replacement. Good luck everyone!

I had a PRC performed about 4 yrs ago. It resulted in zero pain. I didn’t even need any pain medication after surgery. I regained a 100% of my grip. I lost a decent amount of motion. Not about 4 years later I still have good grip but a ton of discomfort on the joint below the thumb and on the opposite side below the pinky finger. It’s more painful than pre opp.

Just had the anatomical arthrosurface tsr five weeks ago. Surgeon says 6 months recovery. No weights first three months.

Can’t afford surgery so thanks for the video I can do surgery on myself

In my early 60's I had my left shoulder repaired with Arthrosurface® HemiCAP® Resurfacing, in Sept 2021. The surgery is a resurfacing of the ball and socket. It includes relocating the long head of the bicep tendon to the upper arm and the complete cutting through of the subscapularis muscle, which is one of the rotator cuff muscles. Recovery was three months of daily stretching and using bands, the next three months was more stretching and 1lb dumbbells progressing to 3 lbs by month 6. At that point I was finished physical therapy and given unrestricted activity. Over the next year I regained about 90% of my strength in arm - bicep and tricep, and back. My shoulders and chest are at about 50% of pre-op strength. Legs 100%. Bench - pre-op 3 sets of 10 at 225lbs , now 3 sets of 15 at 95lbs - Curls pre-op 3 sets of 10 at 55lb, post-op 3 sets of 8 at 55lbs. The recovery was pain free, but much slower than expected. Pre-op I had relentless pain and now I am pain free. I'm glad I did it, I will need my other shoulder done, but will delay as long as possible because of the recovery process.

I've had this surgery and it has not worked. 18 months later I am still in pain and can't easily bend the toe. Probably going to have to go for a full arthrodesis after all and have this implant removed. :-(

Dr. James Bryan in Daytona Beach does this surgery.

MOST PRUDENT DOCTORS STOPPED THE CARTIVA JOINT IMPLANT YEARS AGO! IT WILL DESTROY YOUR LIFE AND MOBILITY! CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT PENDING. 👹🥵🥴🤪🥵👹!!!

DO NOT GET THE CARTIVA JOINT IMPLANT! IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FIR THE WORSE! AS HIGH AS A 79 PERCENT FAILURE RATE! I KNOW! HORRIBLE 🥵👹

Why are they still promoting this modality? They usually only last from 3-5 years and the “fix” is a big deal. They have to take it out, harvest bone from your hip or your heel, and graft it into your big toe. And after all of that, there’s a high probability that the operative big toe will be shorter than when you started. Get a second opinion. Do some research. Ask about the different modalities. Ask LOTS of questions about the Arthrodesis procedure ( First MTP 👍🏾Hallux Fusion).

So looking to have this procedure done. An answered prayer

انا احتاج هكذا عمليه هل هيه سوف تذهب الألم وترجع قوة اليد وحركتها

I got the OVOmotion with Inlay Glenoid TSA just over 2 weeks ago. I’m 55, a carpenter and active in the gym most of my adult life. I had a previous surgery 2018 to detach my bicep tendon in my shoulder and reattach on my upper arm, also to clean up my shoulder arthroscopically. That surgery in 2018 was a hopeful procedure to put off TSA. Apparently the wear and tear along with arthritis were too much and my first surgery had a little to no effect. I could no longer even do pushups or sleep comfortably. Cortisone shots were ineffective. I am currently doing PT twice a week and on my own daily. I ice a lot as I am home not able to do carpentry work. My shoulder is sore and stiff as you might expect it after considering what they have to do to it. I am supposed to be in the sling for the next four more weeks and I do feel like my shoulder is progressing. I can update this every couple weeks to give you an idea of what to expect. The worst part so far is not being able to sleep very well (sling annd discomfort)and being bored. I’m hopeful to return to work by the end of the year and even lift weights again although I’m giving up on lifting heavy!

I'm having the stemless surgery in February 24, I want to get back to bodybuilding

this sound so like a commercial....

How can I get in touch with this man???? He is basically describing me!!!!

What is recovery time post-op for ToeMotion?

I am also trying to get the contact details for this surgeon. I live in Australia but am willing to travel and stay over there for the time necessary for the surgery and after care because I can’t live like this. Does anyone know how I can contact him?

I had my arthrosurface surgery a year ago. I believed Anika's marketing videos like this one. I was a fool. My recommendation? Don't even consider doing this surgery. It didn't work for me.

Any recommendations in NC ?

I am interested in this procedure on my shoulder but am having a hard time finding a surgeon that does this in the Denver, Colorado area. Can you help me find some surgeons that can help me?

I just got home from this surgery….. I’m glad I didn’t watch this BEFORE!

I see only black display

How are you doing with your implant?

Where are this doctors where pleasee tell me where i need and app 2 please 😢

with one small correction, not in Zurich the hospital in Lachen SZ👏👏👏

I had a big toe surgery 2 years ago, and it's still hurting so bad! I need to have another surgery...

I just canceled my surgery after I was told of the restrictions. Had my left knee done two years ago and it went fine and no restrictions. I will wait until this type of surgery is available here in Canada for the shoulder!

Is that the same thing as the hemi cap? I’m kind of in the same position you are. Can’t imagine not being lift weights or box.

I tried to make an appointment with Dr. San Giovanni this week and I was informed that he is no longer performing surgeries on the feet. I am quite disappointed but I will need to search for another surgeon that handles big toe joint issues.

How are your shoulders now? I’m up for both next year and I like the gym.

No nononono

This is an excellent presentation. I have been looking at all the options and was going to do a ream and run however this makes more sense to me.

I wish I could find a physician that utilizes this hardware and that was in my insurance network.

Did Jeff have the glenoid replaced as well as the humerus? Or was this a hemi?

60 degrees dorsiflexion.. my goodness! you are doing surgery on such good toe?! i never had 60 in my life and was very active and did not even notice any issue.. when you are down to 30 or less you can think about surgery.. do not get fooled by this video.

Yep, all the motions I cannot do now.

Cement is probably only good for non physical employment !

Working on trying to find a surgeon familiar with these components in Arizona. This system makes much more sense to me and for my lifestyle.

I have a Hemicap shoulder replacement in 2017, and tested now have extremely high levels of cobalt and chromium in my blood-- Chromium levels at 20.8 nmol/L and Cobalt at 19.3 nmol/L . Do your research before agreeing to this surgery.
