Many athletes have shoulder pain over the years, and some end up needing surgery. One of the most common questions is, "how soon can I go back to playing after having rotator cuff surgery?"
ACL Tears are fairly common in the athletic population. The bad news about them is that they often require surgery and the rehab usually takes many months. The GOOD news is that most patients do well and are able to go back to their sports and activities.
Is there an advantage to robotic knee replacement over the traditional methods?
