I am 45 year old male with continued pain and stiffness one-year postop R shoulder SLAP repair, does this mean an additional surgery?

First a thorough workup including physical examination needs to be performed. Non-operative treatment such as physical therapy and/or injections then may be performed. If these have failed and no further diagnostic lab work is needed you may be appropriate candidate for surgical option. Your surgeon will further discuss these options with you.
