Hello again,
I have slap tear grad 1 with a small tear in the long bizep tendon.
Im waiting for a second opinion from another doctor. The first one said, with or without PT,you will end up with a surgery in any case.
Surgery should be the one where they reattached the tendon somewhere else not simply repair.
I can move my shoulder with no big problems.i only have difficulties and pain in staying in some position like working with the laptop mouse or lifting heavy stuffs.
1) is anyone living with a slap tear grade 1, making only PT and excercises? If i stop playing tennis, will i be able to avoid surgery forever and live a normal life. The pain at the moment is still bearable. Like 6-7 to a scale of 10.
2)has anyone made the surgery and come back to tennis at the same level?i heard that after surgery not everybody is able to play at the same level or able to come back again.
