The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that come together as tendons which help us to lift and rotate our arms. So, let’s take a minute to think about all the things we couldn’t do in our day if we were to injure or tear our rotator cuff such as; drive a car, put on a seatbelt, get dressed, lift and pick up our children & hang out washing. Rotator cuff injuries are extremely common particularly in people that enjoy sports such as; baseball, tennis, swimming or who work in jobs like; painting, plastering, cleaning & diesel mechanics. Today on Meditalk we speak with Orthopaedic Surgeon, Dr David Colvin about ‘rotator cuff injuries & repairs’. Dr David Colvin is an orthopaedic surgeon who specialises knee and shoulder surgery at St John of God Hospital in Subiaco. A big thank you to Dr David Colvin for sharing his knowledge with us today on Meditalk.
