Suffered the above with nerve palsy issues. Radial, Axillary and Ulnar are affected. I’m 8 weeks post surgery (partial shoulder replacement). Improvement in finger extension and hand strength though pinky , ring and thumb still have numbness. Wrist moves up and down about 2/3 normal. My deltoids are still mostly numb although I think I feel some deep tissue feeling if I press into the anterior deltoid but to this point it’s not activating. This makes extending my arm out front or to the side impossible so far. Is it too
soon to request nerve testing ? I understand it’s takes. 3 to 4 months for the axillary to show signs of healing if the nerve isn’t severed or damaged too much to regenerate. But if I’m looking at a dead deltoid with no chance of working without surgery, I’d rather know that now than 2 months from now. Recommendations?
Have you been in physical therapy post-op? Have you followed up with your surgeon about these issues?
