Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

IGHL: Depends upon extent. If just partial tear, consider rest, immobilization, nsaids, pt/modalities. If complete or more extensive, may need additional scope or open stabilization procedures if the glenohumeral joint is unstable with conservative attempts to heal.

Rehab: Suggest rehab to begin. If no improvement needs surgery.
