What's this?

Never got the medical name for what they did.


Basically they ground some of the bone off the outer ridge of the shoulder blade that overhangs the shoulder. It was pinching the tendons that run down the upper outer arm.

Create some clearance, wait for swelling to go down, boom...done. Except, not so much.

  What procedure did you have for the impingement? Subacromial decompression? -- Upwind of uva 07/26/2018 9:18PM
