Shoulder Question

**Roguish Lawyer** · 04-13-2006, 14:51

I have not yet spoken with my orthopaedic surgeon, but I am told that I have a tear of the superior labrum in my right shoulder. Anyone have any idea how that gets treated? Surgery?

Two opinions are better than one.

Stay safe.

A Doc!!

Like I posted in my Rotator Cuff Tread. I wished I had gotten to the DOC sooner.

Hopefully a 18D on here can give some words and exercises. PT will try to work your other muscles within the areas, or do Shots into the area.

But you got to get to an ORTHO DOC or Physical Therapist (PT) to look at it. For mine they worked me for 6-week then I saw a OTHRO surgeon.

Yeah, the orthopaedist sent me to get the MRI, and I'm waiting for him to call me. But so many guys on here have had shoulder injuries that I thought I might get the G2. Also, plenty of docs and surgeons on the board!

RL - Sounds like you forgot the first rule of any contact sport: Christian Charity. It's always better to give (injuries) than to receive (injuries). Thanks for the Google link and good luck with the Drs. Peregrino
