Wedge Pillow Angle After Shoulder Surgery: 30 vs 45 Degrees, Week by Week
Wedge Pillow Angle After Shoulder Surgery: 30 vs 45 Degrees, Week by Week — the angle schedule by procedure, how to measure it, when to taper flat.

How to Sleep With a Shoulder Sling: Reclined Setup, Arm Position, Night Routine — the sling stays on at night, 30-45° recline, per-procedure sling-off dates.
Pillow Cover Materials: Cotton, Viscose, Polyester, Tencel, Cooling Knit — breathability, moisture, durability, recovery-relevant properties.
Pillow Foam Types: Memory Foam, Latex, Polyfoam, Gel-Infused, Buckwheat — material science + which works best for shoulder recovery.
Pillow Firmness: ILD, Density, Sag Factor, Compression Set — how firmness is measured + what numbers mean for shoulder recovery support.
Sleep Position Biomechanics: Force Vectors, Joint Angles, Tissue Strain — how supine, lateral, semi-Fowler positions load the shoulder.
What is sleep ergonomics? Pillow height and shape drive spinal alignment — and after shoulder surgery the operated elbow must not slide backwards.
Post-Op Sleep Science: HGH, Tissue Repair, Inflammation, Pain Management — why sleep quality determines recovery speed after shoulder surgery.
Labrum Anatomy: SLAP, Bankart, Reverse Bankart, Posterior Labrum Tears — what labrum does + tear locations + repair approaches + sleep impact.
What does the rotator cuff actually do? The four SITS muscles, how tears are graded and measured, and what the grade changes about repair and sleep.
