Q:

What is postpartum depression?

A:

The symptoms of depression in pregnancy can be quite common and quite difficult to disentangle from emotions that you normally can experience in pregnancy such as fatigue, sleeplessness and being just a little more emotional.  Symptoms of depression are when the mood and the tearfulness becomes really low and much, much different than what you were experiencing before.

Q:

How is arthroscopic surgery performed on the shoulder?

A:

Arthroscopic surgery is performed by inserting a special camera device (arthroscope) into a joint through a small incision in the skin. The arthroscope allows images of the inside of your joint to be magnified so the surgeon can see what is going on. If a repair is needed to the soft tissue of your joint, other small incisions can be made in the skin to allow the appropriate instruments to be inserted and used to make the repair.
