I just went to the doctor last month about a labrum tear. He specializes in shoulders and knees at UCLA and told me this. If it is torn badly enough, it will need surgery.

The main problem with a tear of this sort is that it doesn't get an abundant supply of blood which greatly slows down the healing process. He proscribed NSAIDs to manage the pain which have been working wonders.

Rehabilitation and physical therapy usually follow to restore function and strength.
