    Brief Medical History Overview

    Post Bankart surgery, Can I travel

    Physical Agents In Rehabilitation
    I had Arthroscopic ban-kart surgery on my left shoulder 6 weeks ago.. and currently I'm in 7th week.
    I'm not really much using sling...I'm feeling better now and under PT.. But still have only 50% ROM.

    My question is.
    Due to work purpose, I need to travel to other location which is around 500 Kms from the place where do I stay. the Up and down journey is around 1000 KMS in 2 days.
    The roads are good, I'm traveling by Volvo bus. ( NO air travel available )

    I have planned to travel wearing "SLING". please let me know is it ok to do it.
    Or strictly I shouldn't travel.
    Your feedback is most valued.

    Regards,
    Vijay.

    Hi Physiobob,
    Thanks, for your info. By the time I make travel I would have just begun with 8th week.

    I posted this question here, since there would be others who had this surgery .. and would have made a travel.. So I can get to hear their experience.

    Thanks a lot.

    Regards,
    Vijay.
