The labrum is the cartilage that is attached to the inner surface of the shoulder joint or the shoulder “socket”. Injury can occur from trauma like a fall, repetitive overhead motion such as baseball pitchers, shoulder dislocation, or degeneration. When an injury or tear occurs in this cartilage it can produce symptoms of pain, clicking or “clunking” and a feeling of instability. Your therapist will complete a thorough shoulder assessment and create a treatment plan to get your shoulder back in shape.
