But when I try to get my wallet out from the left hip pocket, it hurts me. So I researched my options and did all I can to do physical exercises recommended by various MDs and Physical Therapists on Youtube. It is manageable but not getting any better. So, before I consider shoulder surgery, I ask you experienced people who have gone thru this. what, if any, options have/have not worked? I had what you call "50's shoulder" 20 years ago. As I recall, I had one steroid injection and it fixed it. So if I consider that option, where in the villages should I go?
Any recommendations and sharing of your Good, Bad and Ugly stories would be appreciated.
Cheers!

Are we being had? Only problem with pain is taking your wallet out? Put, it into another pocket so you can pay the bill? A steroid shot does not last 20 years. If the pain was there and it went away your body repaired the problem.
Here in the villages with the average age of 70, most everyone has issues. Parts? At 70 no one even wants your parts. Too much wear and tear on them.
If, serious? Pain management, due to recent, over prescribing of pain control meds,
has become like a bad dream in the United States.
