I think a lot of my problems stem from the fact that the doc had to really tighten things up b/c of the loose capsule. A straight labrum repair might yield different results. Btw, not sure how old you are, but I'm 26. One of the reasons the doc suggested surgery as opposed to living with it.
thanks for the insight... i have a complete tear, so they are going to place screws in my shoulder and go from there. i'm young enough that i need to do it now, so that i can get as much out of it as possible.

I take it the injury & surgery are to your dominant side?

A+.
expony you need some new technique that de-emphasizes shoulder input. Sprained wrists are much easier to deal with.

I hope to have a son one day. I plan on raising him hard and strong, with as much exposure to as much bizarre and inappropriate material as early as possible to see if I can create a more concentrated debauched person than myself. Call it science!

rehab varies depending on how extensive your P.T. is and how bad the tear is in the labrum.
I can tell you for about 6 weeks youll be in a sling and the rehab will start after that. depending on how bad the tear is, the time table varies on the surgery and the type of tear you have. it could be 2-4 months after you get off the sling, it could take up to a year. I recommend surgery.
I tore my rotator cuff and labrum wrestling in high school and decided to not have the surgery because i would have missed the state tournament. one of the biggest mistakes of my life. to this day i still have sharp pain in my arm.
