Hi and welcome to HCM,thanks for the query.
It is hard to say without detailed documenation about this case but shoulder is complex joint and recovery may last for up to 6 months. the main treatemnt is good physical therapy and as short immobilisation as possible. there are some possi ble complication of surgery such as pseudoarhrosis or infection but if this was fracture without dislocation then you should compeltely recover
Wish you good health. Regards
