Just wondering if anyone has had shoulder surgery like me . I have had a recon and open bankarat surgery with 4 metal anchors put in due to a dislocation that kept re dislocating up to twelve times in two years. I am 4 months post op and considering a return to cricket it feels good enough .Any advice and info would be greatly appreciated

I've had the same and from memory I was playing cricket 6 months after. Had been a bowler but went and had a crack as a batsman. Although I was terrible still managed to get through a game ok.

One thing I highly highly highly recommend is following whatever rehab program is set for you religiously. As a kid I only went through the motions half-arsed and as a result I have a few mobility problems now. Finding it hard to rectify now but am back to bowling half decently so if you follow the physio's advice you should be alright.

I have had 3 reco's on the same shoulder

Agree totally with Stretch. Do the rehab or you will pay

I had my first at 17 and Im 30 now and suffering

Perhaps if you swapped hands every now and then you wouldn't have a problem
