Depending on the severity of your pain, Dr. Seade may suggest several non-invasive options before recommending surgery.

Our orthopedic specialists will recommend surgery only after the possibility of using minimally invasive treatments has been ruled out. However, if your condition is severe, delaying shoulder surgery can increase your chance of making the damage worse. Our specialists will recommend the most appropriate and timely treatment for your needs.


Depending on the severity of your pain, Dr. Seade may suggest several non-invasive options before recommending surgery.
Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), is always a good starting point for joint pain. Avoid using the affected shoulder for an extended period of time to see if your pain subsides.
Certain prescribed medications might be recommended in addition to RICE to manage your shoulder pain. You should only take these medications as directed by your physician and let them know if they are not helping your pain.
A customized treatment plan developed by one of our physical therapists can help to strengthen the muscles around the joint and can often alleviate the pain.
Steroid injections are a minimally invasive way to treat shoulder pain. Steroids can help reduce inflammation and alleviate pain in the joint.
Dr. Seade did an excellent job on my torn rotator cuff repair! He also had to remove a bone spur and reattach my bicep muscle! My recovery has went very well and after 12 weeks I finally get to start strength training on my left shoulder and arm! I will be back barrel racing in no time!
