Hi, I had my right shoulder operated on about 10 years ago & now have problems with my left shoulder. I think mine is because oof falling & also I have hand controls to drive & this puts alot of wear & tear on my shoulders. I've been told at physio that they don't really operate unless the tear is caused by an injury, has anyone else heard of this?

    Hello @jannim,

    Welcome to the community! :) I hope you have been keeping well despite your shoulder?

    I haven't had any injury like this but I would encourage you to get a second opinion if you feel the physio wasn't helpful. Hopefully other members will be able to share at what point they had surgery if they were in a similar position.
