The primary treatment is getting the joint back into proper positioning, then resting the shoulder and, for minor tears and inflammation, applying ice packs. Anti-inflammatory medications may also be prescribed. As soon as pain decreases, physical therapy is usually started. If chiropractic care is instituted at the beginning of care, with the joint in proper position you are less risk of building up scar tissue.
