These tears can cause pain, reduced shoulder stability, and limited range of motion. Neglecting treatment can lead to chronic pain and decreased shoulder function. Treatment options include surgery and conservative management, each with its pros and cons. Surgery directly repairs the tear but carries risks and may not guarantee full recovery. Conservative management involves physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles but may not fully resolve pain or instability. Recovery timelines vary but can range from months to a year, depending on the severity of the injury and chosen treatment approach. Preventing SLAP tears involves focusing on shoulder strength, flexibility, and proper techniques in activities.
