In my opinion though, I would say that prolotherapy would be what you try as an option before you get to surgery. It seems to me that after surgery you'll want to wait before trying prolotherapy since it takes time to heal, but that's something you'd have to discuss with your doctor and an accepted prolotherapist. -Rafi Richard,

I injured the shoulder 15 years ago whilst climbing (I yanked it). It took 8 years to diagnose because doctors and physios were distracted by the more apparent body compensations such as neck stiffness and back pain. Once diagnosed, the operations began. I believe the first two were not successsful because I did not leave enough time for the wound to heal. I have learnt my lesson and now have my mind set on a 6-12 month recovery window (rather than the previous 4-8 weeks). I have two questions regarding Prolotherapy: If the operation has not stabalized the shoulder, would Prolotherapy be the next thing I should try? If the operation has stabalized the shoulder, will Prolotherapy help the current healing process? I have recently had my third shoulder operation (same shoulder).
