Steve Garvey’s season ended yesterday, when examinations confirmed the Padres first baseman had suffered a ruptured tendon in his left shoulder that will require surgery to repair. Garvey will have the shoulder operated on Saturday morning by Dr http://www.carpaltunnel-cure.com/. Paul Hirshman of the Scripps Clinic at La Jolla. Hirshman indicated yesterday that a rehabilitation period of three to six months is the minimum Garvey can expect. The doctor said he was optimistic about Garvey’s chance of regaining enough strength and mobility to attempt to play in 1988. One factor in Garvey’s favor is that the injury did not occur in his dominant arm (he is right-handed); another is that the examinations revealed no damage to the rotator cuff; and a third is that Garvey is a position player and not a pitcher http://www.carpaltunnel-cure.com/.
