When Should You Consider Shoulder Arthroscopy?

Shoulder pain can be frustrating, especially when it limits your ability to move, lift, or sleep comfortably. While many shoulder problems respond to medication and physiotherapy, some conditions require a closer look โ€” and shoulder arthroscopy offers a minimally invasive way to diagnose and treat the issue.

Here are the key signs and conditions when shoulder arthroscopy might be the right choice:


๐Ÿ”น 1. Persistent Shoulder Pain

If pain lasts more than a few months despite rest, physiotherapy, or medications, arthroscopy can help identify and fix the internal issue.


๐Ÿ”น 2. Rotator Cuff Tears

Tears in the rotator cuff tendons often need surgical repair, which can be effectively done via arthroscopy for faster healing and minimal scarring.


๐Ÿ”น 3. Repeated Shoulder Dislocations

Frequent dislocations can damage soft tissues like the labrum โ€” shoulder arthroscopy helps in stabilizing the joint.


๐Ÿ”น 4. Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

When tendons are pinched during movement, causing pain and weakness, arthroscopy can relieve pressure and improve function.


๐Ÿ”น 5. Labral Tears (SLAP/Bankart)

Arthroscopic repair is commonly recommended for labral injuries, especially in athletes or active individuals.
