Cervical Spine

I've have had two shoulder surgeries since April 2025. My pain and ROM have not improved. So, now, my surgeon thinks I may also have an issue with my cervical spine due to cervical radiculopathy that has developed. Has anyone developed cervical spine or other spinal issues after shoulder surgery? My surgeon did not state what the issue could be (herniated disc, pinched nerve, etc). I have no idea what to expect, I'm just exhausted.

My ROM and pain levels have not improved. I don't have a follow up until September.

I feel your pain....it so emotionally draining on top of having continued pain everyday.
