If you or a loved one received a pain medication pump or pain ball after shoulder surgery and have developed cartilage loss in the shoulder, you may have a legal claim against the manufacturer.  Our law firm is investigating pain pump lawsuit cases nationwide. 

Several well respected medical journals have established a link between the use of intra articular shoulder pain pumps and a horrible condition called Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis (PAGCL).  By utilizing these pumps, doctors are able to inject a continuous stream of pain killers into the shoulder to help the patient with pain management.  Unfortunately, the medication is toxic to the shoulder joint and can result in the deterioration of cartilage and ultimately a shoulder replacement.
