ANTERIOR LABRUM TEAR,HILL SACHS LESION in MRI. SURGERY?

Resolved question:
I have a joint in shoulder joint from past 6 months.

have recently undergone a MRI

MRI impression shows:
1) doubtful superior anterior labrum tear with hill sacs lesions
2) inferior sloping of acromion causing moderate impression on supraspinatous tendon with partial tear involving bursal surface

Right now my orthopedic has suggested me key surgery (arthroscopy) to attach the labrum.

my question: is surgery the only treatment, are they any non-surgical treatment?? 2)can we delay he surger? 3) what are the risk if the surgery is delayed?? 4) what are the chance of the tendon tear again after the surgery??

Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I have read your question with diligence.
It looks from your details that you are having problem of supraspinatus tendon,this tendon lies at upper area of shoulder joint.This tendon is compressed by a bone at upper part of shoulder joint.
Although this surgery is not a urgent one but this should be carried out to prevent rupture later on.
On conservative side you may ask for PRP therapy (Platelet rich plasma ) & steroid injection from your doctor.
If you delay surgery then there are chances of rupture of tendon.
Hope this will help you.
Feel free to discuss further,
With best wishes.
