I had impingement issues - 2-3 years of pain
The operation was pretty painful and took 6- 9 months to recover from but was a great success
Unfortunately i have plenty more arthritis problems - like my spine upper and lower ,and knee and ankle
Tell your Nana to go for it - I understand that all shoulder surgeries tend to have successful outcomes
