Understanding a Labral Tear
The labrum is a soft ring of cartilage that surrounds the shoulder socket and helps keep the shoulder joint stable during movement. A labral tear develops when this cartilage is damaged due to sports injuries, trauma, shoulder dislocations, or repetitive overhead activities.
Common Signs and Symptoms:
- Deep aching pain in the shoulder
- Clicking or grinding sensations during movement
- Feeling of shoulder instability
- Weakness while lifting or rotating the arm
- Difficulty performing overhead tasks
- Repeated shoulder dislocations
Early diagnosis and timely treatment can help prevent further joint damage and improve long-term shoulder stability.
