Your surgeon will recommend regular physical therapy appointments in the first 6 weeks after surgery. The type of surgery and the degree of damage to your rotator cuff will also make a difference in how soon you start physical therapy. Your physical therapy appointments will be 1-3 times per week, and your progression of movement in your shoulder will be the guide.
The tympanic membrane, also called an eardrum, is a thin membrane that separates the external ear from the middle ear in humans and other animals. It moves sound from the air to the ossicles inside the middle ear. The malleus bone bridges the gap between the eardrum and the other ossicles.
Background. The extremely thin and delicate tympanic membrane (TM) is the first component of the middle ear conductive system. The TM is easily traumatized, and diseases of the TM deprive patients of their ability to work and to enjoy life. With the appearance of fluid in the middle ear, these phenomena disappear from the surface of the TM, so observing the fluid is possible. 2  The inflammatory process of an upper respiratory tract infection affects the TM in the form of myringitis. 3  The TM becomes red and thickened, and the light reflex disappears.
