Hey Joe, Just wanted to touch base and clarify something you said in your post about scar tissue. Muscles are not the only tissue in the body that scar. Fascial tissue forms scar tissue. In fact, when you cut into the body there will always be formation of scar tissue around the incision. Just didn't want you to confuse anyone with that piece of your post.

Thanks so much for that clarification, much appreciated.

I didn't know about fascial tissue forming scar tissue at the incision site. It certainly makes sense.

What I was trying to get across is the importance of doing all recommended rehab after a joint replacement - especially knees and shoulders. Getting into rehab asap after surgery, and per a Dr's guidance, is very important for good, lt outcomes.

Thanks again for the clarification!

Joe
