Referred pain doesn't necessarily mean surgery was needed- could the tear heal on its own?
That's the thing. While the labrum was apparently "loaded with nerve endings" we are also told that there is limited blood flow to the area, thus healing is very slow if at all...therefore 'requiring' surgery to repair.
Since then, I've heard countless stories of the labrum "healing on its own" but those were all TMS I am sure now.
