@phillipwilliamsmd: Shoulder calcific tendinitis is a painful condition affecting the rotator cuff. There are calcium depositis within the tendon that can cause sudden intense pain. Treatment options include steroid injections, physical therapy and a procedure known as ultrasound guided barbotage. in this procedure, a needle is placed under ultrasound guidance within the calcium deposit and is used to break it up. #pain #doctor #LearnOnTikTok

Had this done on my shoulder and dealing with extreme pain that increases daily and barely able to move my arm without extreme pain. Is this a normal side effect?

I have this diagnosis and am in severe pain. Cannot move my arm at all and ortho won't consider this procedure until I've had months of pain. He will only give steroid injections.

i have this (went to ER on Tuesday due to pain) but they also saw an underlying rotator cuff injury that was never fixed. does this affect what procedure they would choose to do for the calcific tendinitis?

Mine showed up on X-ray yesterday. All WorkMed wants to do is 1 physical therapy session a week for 8 weeks. I pray it helps. 🥺

If calcium is removed from the tendon, does it come back again in the future? Or is this just temporary to relieve pain?

I had this done in my right hip but only after I had to get PT, cortisone shots. Why can’t we just do the barbotage first? Now I have it in my left him. I’m OVER THIS PAIN

My shoulder specialist is not keen on ultrasound. He says op is successful. But I am not keen on op. Another specialist do ultrasound
