While doing a Google search for “how to heal a labrum tear,” the top two results came from the Orthopedic Center of St. Lewis and the Cedars-Sinai Orthopedic Center. Oddly, they both make medical statements which are diametrically opposite.
From the Orthopedic Center of St. Lewis:
“Labral tears untreated do not heal because of the lack of blood supply in the area.”
From the Cedars-Sinai Orthopedic Center:
“Because the labrum has a rich supply of blood, some labral tears heal on their own.”
Strange! This goes beyond differences of opinion and into the realm of two objectively-stated facts which totally disagree. Like, either the labrum has a rich blood supply or it doesn't...it can't have BOTH.
I was planning to write to them but it seemed pointless...what would they possibly say except "They're wrong, we're right"?
