Labral Tear Surgery

Labral tear surgery is a procedure performed to repair a tear in the labrum, which is the cartilage that cushions and stabilizes the joints, often in the shoulder or hip. The surgery can be done either arthroscopically, using small incisions and a camera, or through open surgery. During the procedure, a surgeon reattaches the torn labrum to the bone or removes damaged tissue. This aims to relieve pain, restore joint stability, and improve mobility, helping patients return to their normal activities and sports. Recovery typically involves physical therapy and rehabilitation to regain strength and function.
