What Does This MRI Report Indicate?
Question: My mother fall down on a slippery area, attahced is mri report, can you pls review and give opinion, does this need surgery or physiotherapy
Brief Answer:
Surgery is a better option.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen the attached report. There is partial thickness tear of the tendons and labrum with inflammatory joint effusion. Such an injury is difficult to heal with only rest and immobilization. Physiotherapy will be allowed only after the lesion has healed. This can take 2-3 months of rest and pain and restricted activity. it is best to get the lesion surgically repaired for faster and better recovery.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
