Ending the suffering of a woman in her sixties from chronic shoulder pain

The medical team at Mouwasat Hospital in Al-Khobar, thanks to God and his success, was able to end the suffering of a patient in her sixties who suffers from chronic pain in the right shoulder that prevents her from sleeping, moving her hand, and practicing her daily life normally, and she did not respond to painkillers and physical therapy.

The patient came to the orthopedic clinic at Al-Mouwasat Hospital - Al-Khobar to see the Saudi doctor, Dr. Ahmed Al-Omair, Consultant Orthopedic Surgeon, and by clinical examination, x-rays and magnetic resonance imaging, it was found that there was a severe erosion of the shoulder tendons.

Dr. Al-Omair explained the case to the patient and the importance of performing the operation, which is the inverted shoulder operation, so that she can regain her ability to move the shoulder normally and lead her life normally.

The inverted shoulder operation is one of the delicate operations that are performed only in advanced orthopedic centers and are used in cases of large hernias in the axial muscles and in the event that the patient loses the ability to use the shoulder with chronic pain.

With God's grace and success, the operation was crowned with success, and the patient was able to move her shoulder in all directions, and she got rid of the excruciating pain that was accompanying her, and she was discharged from the hospital to practice her life normally.

It is worth noting that this type of operation depends on modern medical technology, which is in line with the vision of Al-Mouwasat Medical Services Company in attracting competencies and accurate sub-specialties and through the use of the latest technologies and advanced medical equipment in this field.
