There is also a highly effective way to relieve joint pain due to injury or deterioration. Similar to the hip joint, the shoulder joint is a ball & socket joint. Shoulder replacement involves either replacing just the head of the ball (humerus bone) or both the ball and socket. It can take months to recover from joint replacement surgery, so you need to plan for post-operative care as well. You will require some amount of assistance, so make sure there is somebody available to help you. It could be a friend, family member, or even a trained nurse. Every individual has a different recovery timeline depending on their specific situation. If you follow your doctor’s instructions well, you should be able to recover completely within a few months.
