Orthopedic Procedures Mexico
Affordable and Expert Shoulder Replacement Surgery in Mexico
Shoulder replacement surgery is a specialized orthopedic procedure designed to treat severe damage or degeneration of the shoulder joint caused by arthritis, injury, or chronic wear and tear. It is often recommended for patients experiencing persistent shoulder pain, stiffness, loss of mobility, or reduced strength that significantly affects daily activities and quality of life.
During the procedure, the orthopedic surgeon removes the damaged parts of the shoulder joint and replaces them with artificial components (prostheses) to restore smooth movement and reduce pain. Advanced surgical techniques, including minimally invasive and arthroscopic-assisted methods, ensure precise implant placement with smaller incisions, faster recovery, and minimized scarring.
Our comprehensive approach to shoulder replacement surgery includes thorough pre-operative assessments, cutting-edge surgical technology, and personalized post-operative rehabilitation programs. This holistic care model promotes optimal healing, helping patients regain shoulder mobility, reduce pain, and return to an active, pain-free lifestyle.

Patients often regain strength in the shoulder, which is essential for lifting and carrying objects.

Who is a Candidate For Shoulder Replacement
Surgery ?
Individuals with a Confirmed Shoulder Joint Condition
Patients diagnosed with severe shoulder arthritis, rotator cuff tear arthropathy, or avascular necrosis through imaging and clinical evaluation who experience ongoing pain, stiffness, or loss of function may benefit from shoulder replacement surgery.
Limited Shoulder Mobility
Shoulder joint damage can significantly reduce range of motion and make everyday activities—like reaching, dressing, or lifting—painful or impossible. If shoulder function is compromised, surgery may help restore mobility and improve quality of life.
Persistent Shoulder Pain or Weakness
If shoulder pain, instability, or weakness continues despite conservative treatments (like rest, physical therapy, medications, or injections), shoulder replacement surgery may be the most effective option for lasting relief and improved joint function.
Active Individuals or Athletes
Surgery is often considered for younger or active individuals who wish to return to recreational sports, overhead movements, or labor-intensive work after shoulder damage and want to prevent further deterioration of the joint.
Shoulder Replacement Surgery: Effective Treatment for Shoulder Pain and Joint Damage
Shoulder replacement surgery is a highly effective orthopedic procedure used to treat severe shoulder joint damage caused by arthritis, rotator cuff tears, fractures, or degeneration. The shoulder joint plays a crucial role in arm movement and upper body strength. When the joint is damaged—often from aging, overuse, or injury—it can result in chronic shoulder pain, stiffness, weakness, and reduced mobility.
At Orthopedic Surgeries Mexico, we specialize in advanced, minimally invasive shoulder replacement procedures, including total shoulder arthroplasty and reverse shoulder replacement. Our expert orthopedic surgeons use the latest technology to restore shoulder function by replacing the damaged joint surfaces with durable, medical-grade implants.
Whether you're struggling with osteoarthritis, rotator cuff tear arthropathy, or joint deterioration from past trauma, our goal is to provide lasting relief, restore shoulder mobility, and help you return to an active, pain-free lifestyle.
If you're searching for effective shoulder pain treatment in Mexico, our team is here to guide you every step of the way—from diagnosis to recovery.

Post-Surgery Recovery
Physical therapy begins the same day or the day after surgery, with the assistance of a physical therapist. Unless there are specific complications, the patient is allowed to put weight on the operated leg immediately. Initially, walking requires crutches, which are gradually phased out. The minimally invasive anterior approach often results in faster recovery and improved walking stability by preserving surrounding muscles.
Hospital stays typically range from 1 to 3 days, though some patients may qualify for outpatient surgery. After discharge, the patient can return home and continue physical therapy two to three times per week for about a month. If home conditions are unsuitable or the patient requires additional assistance with daily activities (such as shopping and meal preparation), a short stay in a rehabilitation center (typically less than three weeks) may be recommended.
A follow-up appointment, including X-rays, is scheduled with the surgeon 4 to 6 weeks after surgery to assess mobility and walking recovery. A second check-up is usually advised around three months post-surgery. Periodic X-rays are recommended every few years to monitor the prosthetic implant and surrounding bone for any abnormal wear.
Recovery Timeline
Recovery is often quick, with patients resuming walking immediately. It is generally advised to use a cane for at least two weeks or longer if needed.
Mild groin pain may persist during the first month but typically subsides quickly.
Driving can usually be resumed 2 to 4 weeks after surgery, depending on the patient’s mobility. Low-impact sports, such as cycling and swimming, can generally be resumed within 2 to 3 months post-surgery.
