A member asked:
I tore my labrum. we have about a week left, but im not cleared to play for another 3 weeks, could i play sooner with a brace and be okay?

Maybe: Labral tears often come from should dislocations or near dislocations (subluxations). You could play soccer but you increase your risk of redislocating and creating a larger tear and the need for surgery. Ask your doctor who knows the size of your tear what the risks are before making a decision.
