Shoulder tendonitis and labral tear
I had an injury 2.5 months back. The report says non displaced tear of posterior labrum, 7-12 o clock. Is orthoscopy required for it, or can it be healed on its own. I feel pain and weakness in shoulder.

Hi sir. The problem you report is usually comes under posterior instability of shoulder. Definitely requires arthroscopic repair. Please contact if you need any help with that. Un usual injury, but needs intervention for sure.

You may start graded physiotherapy along with  anti inflammatory  medicines. Normally it should  work. but if no relief, then arthroscopic repair is indicated.
