UNDERSTANDING YOUR TREATMENT
Move towards a more comfortable everyday life
The rotator cuff is the group of tendons that helps you lift and turn your arm. When a tendon tears, it can cause pain and weakness. Repair surgery reconnects the torn tendon to the bone, with the aim of improving comfort and shoulder function.
01
More comfortable everyday movement
Treatment aims to ease pain when reaching, getting dressed or resting on your shoulder.
02
A plan for a torn shoulder tendon
Your specialist reviews the tear and previous treatment to assess whether surgery is the right next step.
03
Build strength with guided recovery
A gradual exercise programme helps restore arm movement as the repaired tendon heals.
PROCEDURE OPTIONS
A repair approach suited to your shoulder
Your scan and specialist assessment guide the choice between keyhole and open repair. Both approaches aim to reconnect the torn tendon.
