query answered
Detailed Answer:
hi XXXX
.. looking at the mri report which has been done a month ago,it seems to be a acute condition ,,may be after a trauma. The mri is only of right shoulder and suggests a tear of rotator cuff.
But looking at doctors statement- it says Right shoulder pain- 4 months
and left shoulder pain is from 1 year..
If its one year old -its definitely chronic on left side.
Right side is doubtful because of disparity in both reports.
thanks.
