A greater tuberosity fracture is usually managed with a sling for a few weeks, depending on the rate of healing and pain levels. Avoid lifting, sudden shoulder movements and keep the arm supported as advised. Gradual physiotherapy is important to restore movement once pain reduces. Pain relief and supplements may be used, but your doctor should guide treatment for proper recovery.
