Grade 3
Shoulder
Separation

Prolotherapy and
Shoulder Separation
I have a grade three
shoulder separation now in its
ninth
week. I have received weekly
physical therapy, assisted release therapy
and acupuncture. I have a very good
diet and have supplemented it with
mega doses of vitamins and nutrients. I have very good range of motion according to both my
PT and ART treatment providers. I agree with them.
The first follow up
session with my orthopedic surgeon, who is very conservative agrees with
them. My next and I believe my final exam will be next week. I
discussed
Prolo with him and even though he believes in the concept, he
feels I do not need it because of my level of recovery/repair. I "feel"
the injury periodically depending on the movement.
Three
questions, 1) Where should I be in the recovery/repair process after 9
weeks 2) How do I know other than through an
MRI that the
ligament is
healed. 3) Can PROLO help me at this point considering I'm 9 weeks into
recovery.
A. Anyone
with grade 3 separation in my opinion isn't going to heal all the way in
regards to strength in the tissues without Prolotherapy. You injured,
stretched, and/or torn a ton of ligament tissue and I don't care how
healthy you are...if it was me I would have received about 3
Prolotherapy treatments by now...if you had you probably would know the
difference, your shoulder would be a lot stronger...so the answer is a
resounding yes get at least three sessions of Prolotherapy. In regard
to the MRI, please refer to this article
