Don't put it off!! I had a complete tear of my rotator cuff and the surgery was the best thing I ever did! It was 6 weeks without use of that arm but then the doctor took off the sling and threw it to the side (reminded me of Eleanor Burns throwing the selvage piece over her shoulder...lol) and said, "Start using your arm!!" The exercises helped me regain my movement and my arm is better than it had been for a very long time.
