Posterior Labral Tear

I saw Dr. Shiple today for a quick follow-up on my knee and evaluation of my shoulder. He used the ultrasound to check for tears in the ligaments and joint capsule. As it turns out I have a posterior (back of shoulder) labral tear. He could not get a good view of the joint capsule, however assumes it is either torn or stretched (which means the same thing in my case). Looks like I will just have to wait until I see my shoulder surgeon to get a better idea of how to handle this.
