I have issues. Did not have surgery. Probably not a full tear.

Generally manage symptoms with consistent gym time.

As long as I consistently lift, I don’t have any pain.

Tore my labrum during rugby season. Could still move it so continued to play and eventually also tore my rotator cuff. MRI with dye confirmed need surgery. Once the nerve block wore off, I was behind on taking pain meds and was extremely painful. The rehab was the worst and did have to sleep sitting up for a while. Was back playing 8 months later, only to reinjure it a year later. Can’t sleep on that shoulder now, but haven’t had the surgery again.

Well, sounds like a crapshoot, given all the above. Different results for different folks.

I'm 72 and need to keep working lifting light weight at least to eye level, so I guess I'll risk no surgery and hope it doesn't get worse. Though it likely will given my age. Can't complain as I have had optimum health for the duration and am grateful for that.

Thanks all for the info.
