Pre-op training and recovery after Bankart repair
Hi everyone,
I’m going to have a Bankart repair surgery soon and I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do before the operation to make the recovery easier.
For those of you who have had a Bankart repair:
- Did you do any specific exercises or prehab before surgery that you felt helped with your recovery?
- Is there anything you wish you had worked on before the operation?
- How long did it take before you felt reasonably functional again?
- How long until you were able to return to activities such as gym training, sports, or normal daily activities?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences, especially what helped and what you would recommend doing before surgery.
Thanks!
