Shoulder Pain Pump Problems and PAGCL
Use of a intra-articular shoulder pain pump, which deliver medication directly to the shoulder joint after surgery, has been strongly linked to the development of a painful and permanent condition known as Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis (PAGCL). Symptoms which indicate damage to the cartilage in the shoulder from the use of a pain pump include
- Shoulder pain, whether in motion or at rest;
- Clicking, popping, or grinding of the shoulder;
- Stiffness or weakness in the shoulder;
- Decreased or difficulty in range of motion.
