Before the replacement I played lots of tennis. Well I’m back to playing tennis. My serve isn’t as fast as it was before the surgery, but was expected.
ROM will slowly get there.
I’m sorry to hear you are having pain. What did the doctor say what the cause of the pain?

Good to hear that you are able to play tennis again and can serve overhead. When did you have the replacement done? I had a right shoulder rTSR on 5/1/25. I just received the go ahead to start working up to playing again after my 3 month X-Ray looked fine. Hitting some balls thrown to me now and plan to start rallying next week. No pain so far. The goal is to start playing in November. I was playing 4 -5 times per week last fall but had to quit due to my ankle which was replaced 12/18/24. After I stopped playing tennis my shoulder which was okay (got a bit sore occasionally) locked up and became painful. Tennis kept it loose and pain free. ROM is very good - mostly working on behind the back now. Good luck to all.
