Ultrasound shows full thickness Subscapularis tendon.

HI everyone,
i am 10 months post op my Supraspinatus repaired and was given clean cheat by Dr to get back to normal. but since last week i am having a nightmare with this shoulder. i cant think of anything that could potentially cause this problem. ROM dropped and pain increased and so many discomfort on shoulder. so, yesterday i rushed to GP and he referred for ultrasound scan and i had this morning and result came out this afternoon. and i am gutted and disapointed. repaired tendon is okay but another tendon called Subscapularis has a full thickness tear. does that mean i need another surgery to fix it ? can Ultrasound be as good and clear as MRI ? i am definitely going to see a Surgeon. But this is not something i was expecting. please, share your experience or need some recommendations . thanx 😃

I had a full tear of the Subscapularis earlier this year. I also had a previous Total Shoulder Replacement. Unfortunately my shoulder started dislocating when I would reach behind me, such as shutting a door. I had surgery at the end of JAN. After a few months of PT it's doing well. Full range of motion and pretty much pain free. GOOD LUCK!

thank you Jenny for replying to this post. i have had enough trouble with this shoulder. i dont understand what the hell is going on. actually, had three surgeries already( first repaired and got complication with anchors and scar tissues built up, so had to clean up then after few months of clean up joint i ruptured my tendon) i am just 31 and dont smoke no family history and just social drinker, very healthy and fit(well apart from this shoulder) i am now here just sitting and thinking what am i supposed to do ? anyways, good luck with your recovery then 😃
