Mumbai, Feb 17 (PTI) Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who underwent a surgery to repair the tear in the main muscle of his left shoulder, is recovering well, doctors attending on him here said today.
Shoulder specialist Dr Sanjay Desai, who led the team of doctors to operate on the 43-year-old actor-producer, said Khan is recovering well and had a normal diet.
"I will be visiting him later in the day," Dr Desai said, adding that he is discussing with the actor's family whether to discharge him today or tomorrow.
Khan was operated yesterday at south Mumbai's Breach Candy hospital.
"The arthroscopic method of surgery, which was performed on the star does not require opening of the entire joint. The surgery ensures less pain and minimal scar," the doctor said.
Under arthroscopic surgical technique, a tube-like instrument is inserted into a joint to inspect, diagnose and repair tissues.
The actor had injured his shoulder on the sets of 'Dulha Mil Gaya' in November last year.
Shah Rukh was in London to promote his latest film 'Billu' during the weekend and returned to Mumbai yesterday after which he was admitted to the hospital in the afternoon.
His wife Gauri is with him in the hospital. This is the actor's second surgery. He had undergone a surgery in London in 2003 for a back problem. PTI
