I realize that this may not be the appropriate place to solicit medical advice, and nor do I seek it. However, I fear I may have recently torn my rotator cuff and am anxiously awaiting my appointment with an Orthapedist so I may get an MRI (I have already had x-rays, which were negative). In the mean time, my question is simply thus: in the case of a minor tear, may the muscle/tendon heal to normal strength without surgery, given enough time? Again, I realize this forum is no substitute for visiting a physician, but if anyone can offer any information while I wait, it is appreciated.
