I recently had arthroscopic shoulder surgery to fix a frayed labrum. Since then, I've been going to physical therapy 3x a week to try to restore the range of motion.
The therapy ends with me laying on a table and the therapist moving my arms to the limits of where they can go and applying pressure. The pain is pretty excruciating. Maybe the worst I've ever experienced. I try not to yell but bite down on a towel just in case I can't help it.
I was wondering if there were any long-term consequences to being subjected to this pain this often. The therapist, who is pretty experienced, said there wasn't, but I thought I'd ask here as well since I know this is a knowledgeable group in this area.
