There are several different shoulder surgeries, each with different prognosis. AC joint, rotator cuff, labum, ligaments and bone spurs. Which do you have?

Depends on which doctors you are going to, hopefully it is Southwest Ortho & Spine Center. More than likely they will do one at a time and go in several small holes and try and shrink those ligaments to tighten things back up. I am not going to put his name on here put PM me and I will tell you who you need to talk to as I am think he had a similar problem and had that surgery. I thought you had that done, or at least one of them. Important thing right now is to work on Range Of Motion and as much strength as possible so recovery will not be as hard. Anyhow hope that helped PM me and I will get you more info.
