Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
I would suggest you to get a second opinion. Also if possible get a MRI too. If it shows that there is any frozen shoulder or any other problem. I do not think that going to manipulation us good just after 4 months as it can damage any repair done that time.
