I have had three reverse shoulder replacement surgeries. Clothes post surgery: comfortable pull on shorts or pants ( no buttons, zippers, snaps etc.). Sweat pants work great. Blouses that are easy to button. I had both long sleeve and short sleeves depending on the season. I ordered a flannel shirt with a soft lining from LL Bean to stay warm after a winter surgery. Practice buttoning one handed ahead of surgery. The first week is tough. After a while I was able to wear some oversized comfortable tee shirts. I wore them to bed at night and put on a clean one the next day etc. They were NOT cotton but rather like a polyester type fabric. Do you have anyone to help? I live alone and hired a CNA to help me twice a week and Have family near by to fill in when needed.
