How to treat osteophytes in the shoulder

Shoulder osteophytes, if the symptoms caused are mild, can be treated conservatively, while if the symptoms caused are heavy, surgery is required, the details are as follows: First, mild osteophytes usually do not cause significant clinical manifestations, most only have local mild pain, can be treated by microwave therapy, ultrashort wave therapy, and short-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as celecoxib capsules, etc., so that the symptoms gradually The symptoms can be relieved gradually and will not affect the patient’s shoulder activities. Secondly, severe osteophytes, such as acromegaly, can cause serious consequences such as rotator cuff tears and require surgical treatment. This is usually done by minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery to remove the hyperplastic bone and restore the “one” shape of the rotator cuff, while repairing the rotator cuff injury.
