Struggling with shoulder pain that just won’t go away? Whether you’re an athlete, active adult, or recovering from an injury, labral tears are one of the most common — and most overlooked — causes of shoulder discomfort. In this video, Dr. Michael Howard of Plano Orthopedic and Sports Medicine explains what labral injuries are, how they happen, and the treatments that help patients get back to pain-free movement.

� What You’ll Learn in This Video
Dr. Howard breaks down:
What a labral tear is and why it commonly affects athletes and active adults
Common symptoms, including catching, popping, instability, and deep shoulder pain
How labral injuries are diagnosed, including physical exams and imaging such as MRI
Non-surgical treatment options, including physical therapy and strengthening programs
When surgery is recommended and what modern arthroscopic techniques can repair
Recovery expectations, from conservative care to post-surgical rehab timelines
His clear, patient-focused explanation helps you understand your shoulder symptoms and what steps to take next.

� Why This Matters
Labral injuries can come from sports, repetitive use, or even simple everyday motion. Many people live with shoulder pain far longer than they should — but early evaluation can lead to faster recovery and prevent long-term damage.

If you’re dealing with unexplained shoulder pain, a sports-related shoulder injury, or post-trauma shoulder instability, this video will help you understand what might be going on and how to get the right care.

� Ready to Feel Better?
If these symptoms sound familiar, don’t wait. Plano Orthopedic and Sports Medicine offers comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plans for shoulder injuries.

Let’s get you back to the activities you love — stronger and pain-free.
