Dr. Saseendar S answered : 8 years ago

A full thickness ligament tear of the shoulder usually means that it will be difficult to lift your arm. This can lead to muscle wasting and stiffness of the joint. If you are an active person you need repair of the ligament by arthroscopy (key-hole surgery) where, by minute incisions are used to repair the ligaments without much complications.
Hope that helps.

Now almost a year later he suddenly developed a red rash on his ball sac where the surgical incision is and its not smooth but rather rough , peeling a little but not hot to touch however feels like a slight pinching feeling. What may be the cause and should I just seek medical attention or do you have alternative suggestions?
