You may have to start all over and relearn if so inclined. Just like people that have to learn how to walks again after an injury. That would probably be a good exercise of your brain and help your recovery too.
Can't. My right arm doesn't behave very well. I have tried, but unless it's all hammer notes by my left hand, it doesn't work. But, I'm only 62, I have plenty of time to keep trying...

Maybe a rockabilly doghouse bass played slapping style?

Kinda hard to slap the strings when you're right arm is wandering around somewhere...

It was many years before I could hold my right arm out straight and hold it somewhat still.
There are exceptions to every rule...
and I know I'm mighty exceptional... :lion2:

I developed impingement in my shoulders about year ago, so I can sorta relate. I can hold my arms out in front of me and their fine, but if I try to hold them out to the sides it pretty painful. Not that it has anything to do with playing an instrument :frown: If I could play a guitar as well as I appreciate listening to them then I would be guitar god like this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nusv6nLWxU . Alas, I can still listen, and enjoy. :rock:
