F.A.Q.
Does shoulder pain always require surgery?
For shoulder pain, surgery is not always essential. Conservative treatments like rest, physical therapy, and medication effectively treat many cases. Surgery is usually only used in more severe cases or situations where other treatments have failed to relieve the symptoms.
Should I visit a doctor if I have shoulder pain?
Seek medical help from an orthopedic surgeon in Dallas if your shoulder pain is severe, lasts more than a few days, or is accompanied by swelling, a fever, or trouble moving your arm.
How can shoulder pain be avoided?
It is crucial to maintain proper posture, refrain from repetitive overhead movements, exercise frequently, and warm up before any physical activity to avoid developing shoulder pain.
