    Thank you so much for your videos. I just had the same surgery and the same issues. I had so many concerns and questions, and no one to tell me what to expect. Your videos really helped!

    There are lots of these videos on UA-cam, but nobody talks about bras. Tank tops may be implied, but it seems that a tank top’s “straps” would put pressure on the shoulder. What do you do about covering and supporting your breasts?

      Excellent question. I have large breasts and I’m a little too old to go bra-less.

      Ordered a set of three tube tops & working great. While sitting I step into them & pull up with good arm.

      I’m having surgery on Friday and the bra is my concern. I’m just gonna leave the surgery side strap down, I do have some older ones that are a little stretchy so I’ll use those. I can NOT go with out. So I’ll pretty much be home, except for follow up visits and therapy.

    Which shoulder right or left?

  • @susanfromtexas4976
    @susanfromtexas4976 2 роки тому +1

    Sadly, my left arm is only marginally better then my right which had a torn bicep tendon. My left arm does not have the mobility to shrug the arm off. Tank tops it is!

    So whats easier with strictly one arm? The button up, or oversized t shirt?

    • @VirtualHandCare

      I think the oversized shirt is just because you don't have to deal with buttoning.

    How do you get the top underneath on?

    • @VirtualHandCare
      @VirtualHandCare  Рік тому

      Same way as the button up. Dress the injured arm first, pull the tank top all the way up to your injured shoulder then use your good arm to pull it over your head. Usually a tank top like what I am wearing is is large enough to pull on. Hope that helps!

    What about your bra? And what if you don't have a good arm to work with.

      try this one - it is pretty good

    That method is no good when you have a total reverse shoulder replacement and you have your arm in a sling

    When it comes to sleeves you have to use one hand only.

  • @sojournerhouse

    I do not think you have ever been through this surgery. There would be no way to put on a tank top or a bra. The items are best sleeveless or short loose sleeve, large button up shirt, heavy cotton fabrics.

    • @VirtualHandCare
      @VirtualHandCare  Рік тому +1

      Not every one recovers the same. And yes, some people can put on shirts and tank tops. I could!

    How would you Don/doff a back fastening bra with a conservative treatment of a proximal humeral fracture - with a sling as recommended by her ortho 24/7? 🤦‍♀️

      24/7?! Ugh! Let them be free I guess. 💕

    You should not be making these videos. Let some one make them that has actual experience.
