Shoulder Labral Repair

The labrum is a ring of soft fibrous tissue that surrounds the glenoid (the end of the shoulder blade) and helps stabilize the shoulder joint. Ligaments and tendons can attach to the labrum and when the labrum is torn, the shoulder becomes painful. A torn piece of labrum in the shoulder will cause much pain.

Maxpassion17. I was 38 when mine was done and I had the labrum scoped and from not having It addressed for 10 years I developed a gleniod cyst in my shoulders socket. The cyst required 3-4 incision on the front side of my shoulder. They took the cyst out and replaced it with a bone graft. The surgery went well and lasted 2 hours. The hard part is rehab. Now being I was older and the cyst my recovery seemed longer about 4-5 months. I'm sure yours will be faster as being an athlete and being yo

@mxpassion17 They said I had a torn biceps tendon and an inflamed rotator cuff along with the tear. So they fixed all of that. I've had the flu for a month and haven't done shit and I can tell. The key is don't let it get stiff. You just have to do those exercises and light dumbells and stretching after PT is over. MOST IMPORTANT THING.  If you have any more questions, let me know. Too bad you're not getting a Tommy John surgery. I heard those can add like 5-7 MPH on your fastball. lol

@mxpassion17 Its been almost 8 months and its much better. My injured shoulder isn't even my throwing shoulder (never had problems with my throwing shoulder while pitching in HS or college.) so I can't imagine what you're going through! MAKE SURE you go to physical therapy and CONTINUE to do the exercises and stretches after PT is over. I bought a TENS unit/muscle stimulator and I still use it everyday. TENS for pain and stim for working muscles. It was $250. Good luck bro!
