Artist Ajda Pekkan, who has been suffering from shoulder pain since last summer, has undergone surgery. The singer had an operation on her right shoulder joint.

'I HAD SURGERY WHEN THE PAIN INCREASED'

In a statement made after the surgery, Ajda Pekkan said, "I had a lot of pain; with this surgery, I have been relieved of my pain. After I broke my hip, a muscle tear occurred in my shoulder. Those pains started gradually last summer.
