Labral Tears, Shoulder Instability & Shoulder Dislocation | What You Need to Know

[@ryanburch3092]

Dr. Schneider is a badass surgeon. He repaired my shoulder after numerous dislocations throughout my life and I feel 100% now. I have heard horror stories of incompetent surgeons making shoulder issues worse, grateful to have the best of the best.

what type of surgery did you have? bankart repair, laterjet?

[@ryanburch3092]

@@sonic-fm1gw Bankart. Several years later and I have had zero dislocations and no loss in range of motion. Make sure to do the physical therapy though!

In that 5 minute mark, he literally explains my problem. Literally pops out of place doing anything.

[@Luis-lb2od]

What shoulder movements did you find most painful to perform? 2 months now and I have popping/cracking sensation with no pain. When lifting, pain is present only when lifting above head **and** hyperextending the elbow at the same time.

Thank you this is very reassuring. I have my labrum repair surgery tomorrow morning. I'm nervous as hell

I had mine a month ago. How you coming along ?

[@dugsbunnyog3544]

@Jeff recovery is slow and takes patience in not using my arm to do things that seem fine but realistically could be slowing or preventing quick and seamless healing. Tip is to be patient and learn to adjust using one arm

[@simonthewatchguy6073]

Had arthroscopic procedure done 5 days ago. Today is my first physio session. I had my shoulder restabslised posterior and anterior and a debridement

[@Han9509]

Did you have full recovery?

[@sonic-fm1gw]

what doy uo mean restabilized? is that a repair?

[@brockley9570]

I had surgery on my labrum about 5 years ago and unfortunately need to get surgery again. Really hope I can get it fixed this time around

[@floresnashvilledrummer]

May I ask you why you need it again? I just had a labrum tear repair surgery last week and I'm looking forward to the recovery but I definitely don't want to go through this again.

[@brockley9570]

@@floresnashvilledrummer I tore it in a completely different area and tore a larger portion this time... I’ve actually opted out of surgery and pursued dry needling, adjustments, and lots of PT. The shoulder is still slightly unstable but the pain is almost completely gone. I highly suggest taking rehab seriously and do what the doc says!

[@Heffey02]

@@brockley9570 How did you tear it again? How are you feeling now?

[@SaanichtonMinistries]

Very nice model. I am 46 and had a partial dislocation 20 years ago, followed by some PT, then Had a complete dislocation 2 weeks ago. Thus why I’m here! After reducing it, I had a repeat dislocated shoulder 3 days later. Immobilized it for 2 weeks and now doing some basic PT very easy to gain muscle strength. Mussels felt very weak. Don’t know if I should press for surgery or PT. X-ray and Ultrasound came back with positive feedback with not pathology of tears of the cuffs or biceps….

[@nathanaelj.marcelin7807]

That is my fear, that my shoulder keeps dislocating cause I can’t handle that. Either I break it & get surgery or it heals itself cause I can’t handle these tears man

[@PouyaSthlm]

Having a labrum tear, what makes the risk of artherisis higher later in life, having surgery on it or letting it be and just doing pt?

[@Heffey02]

The problem depends on the type of labrum tear and what your goals/risks are. Also, is arthritis higher in ppl who have surgery? Hopefully, pt and healthy lifestyle could prevent it?

[@oldz70]

Damn man. I see the video is old but I'm a veteran without benefits and ptsd and just suffered this injury and need treatment bad. Where is the clinic?

[@ahappyimago]

That was amazing

[@mueedch5834]

i've been lifting for more than 2 years now and last month my left shoulder started paining, it only used to pain when i lift my arm above my head, it was kind of a shock. but now that pain is gone but i am experiencing pain even when i'm resting. and sometimes it goes to my arm or even palm of my hand. can you please explain what it could be? does labrum tear causes pain in arm or hand?

[@simonthewatchguy6073]

I had those symptoms and I had a laberal tear

[@karthik_silkroads]

which aspect of the palm of your hand does it go to? more towards the thumb or pinky side?

[@mueedch5834]

karthikronfils i don't really remember haha, its been more than 2 years since i commented here and the pain is completely gone thank God. I rested for more than 4 months went to see a doctor but found nothing, someone told me to try fish oil supplement. It has omega-3 fatty acids that could be used to improve the healing of ligament injuries by enhancing the entry of new cells into the wound area. And after i took fish oil supplement for only 4 days, the pain was completely gone and i went back to lifting heavy weights.

[@xavier_sz]

@mueed ch so you did complete rest, no lifting whatsoever? did you do any rehab exercises during that time or literally nothing. And also is there any specific omega 3 fatty acid brand you recommend? If you respond after all this time i wpuld greatly appreciate it, really lost and stressed with what to do

[@mueedch5834]

Xavier yup, no lifting at all, and i did try some rehab exercises but nothing really worked, and the fish oil supplement i take is from "Holland & barrett" brand, it's the only fish oil supplement i ever took, im not sure about the other brands. My shoulder is completely fine now and im lifting heavier than i ever did!

After the arthroscopic procedure how can a patient get the Popeye deal ?

popeye deal or popeye sign?

[@TheBostonfangamer]

PLEASE HELP ME! I just had an mri and the doctor said it’s a labrum tear he said my labrum had been worn down. No specific injury that I can remember caused this. I’m 16 and don’t know what to do should I get surgery like he wants me to? I played football with this injury and my shoulder has never dislocated I’m not returning to ball but I do like working out. Is surgery necessary?

[@ravitejakoduri7009]

If you are a foot ball player, you don't need a surgeey. But the labrum tear causes decreasing the streangth, muscle size. If u r a bodybuilder you definitely need surgery.. I had a labral tear surgy.. I am bodybuilder.

[@A66-m3u]

I am also 16 with a Labral tear. Been lifting for a year now. Unfortunately I’ve teared my labral when I was overhead pressing. I only do simple raises and light benching, about 60kg. Doctor said I’ll need a surgery later on if I still keep lifting. Indeed, if you don’t get a surgery, as far from what I know, you could get a fully arm replacement. Why? Our age is still young and therefore we are still growing. The shoulder will fully become unusable( out of socket and fully teared labrum) and loose. Pretty scary! My stances are, surgery is pretty ideal. However, some people get even worse after surgeries. So find a doctor that can actually do the surgery nicely so you can be satisfied. Nothing to be scared about, there are people with no arms. Don’t worry about losing muscle, muscle memory will kick in and smash it away! Stay cool and keep working for your dreams💪

[@martingibbins6621]

Find a good competent sports physio/doc and don't allow the surgeon to dictate your treatment. Most degenerative tears/fraying don't require surgery. However there are exemptions. 16 is pretty young to have a degenerative tear though. If i were you I'd be working on shoulder stabilization exercises firstly, to address the underlying shoulder instability that may have led to your tear.

Talk about non surgical options, clown. Labrum tears don't always require surgery. Most of the time they require building the muscle around it.
