Hi

I got Left shoulder Dislocation for the third time. During my consultations with an Orthopaedics Surgeon, he asked me to do an MRI first and the results are Labral- Labral tear and Bone - Bone Fracture. His recommendation is to do an Anthroscopic Labral Repair.

What i wanted to know is whether I must go for this surgery or not given that this problem is for the third time since 2011.

Thanks & Regards

    Ramav, take your MRI slides to another Ortho for a second opinion. if he concurs that surgery is needed, yes, get the surgery.
