If you’re experiencing persistent shoulder pain, clicking, or instability, you may be dealing with a labral tear. The shoulder labrum is a critical structure that stabilizes your shoulder joint, and when it’s torn, the effects can be 🔥 painful and long-lasting.

Labral tears can result from traumatic injury, overuse, or degeneration over time. Common causes include: ⬇️

✔️ Shoulder dislocations (especially in younger athletes)
✔️ Repetitive overhead motions (common in baseball, tennis, and swimming)
✔️ Falls onto an outstretched arm
✔️ Heavy lifting or pulling
✔️ Aging and cartilage wear (particularly in adults over 40)

Shoulder pain shouldn’t be ignored. If you suspect a labral tear, don’t wait—get a professional evaluation with Dr. Steven Struhl, one of the top shoulder surgeons in New York.

🦵 Considering Joint Replacement? There May Be Another Way. High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) is a precision procedure designed to realign the knee joint, relieve pressure, and preserve your natural anatomy — often delaying or even avoiding the need for total joint replacement.

Performed by our board-certified orthopedic specialist, HTO is ideal for active patients with early-stage arthritis or joint imbalance who want to stay mobile without going straight to implants. 👍

✨ Joint preservation ✨ Pain relief ✨ Personalized care

👉 Let’s explore your options — because your knees deserve more than a one-size-fits-all solution. To learn more about HTO, schedule a consultation with 👨‍⚕️ Dr. Struhl, one of New York’s top knee orthopedic surgeons.

🧊 ICING 🧊 is most effective within the first 24–48 hours after an acute injury—like a sprain, strain, or impact. It helps reduce swelling, ease pain, and protect tissue from further damage.⁣
⁣
💠 Apply ice for 15–20 minutes at a time.⁣
💠 Repeat every 2–3 hours as needed ⁣
💠 Always use a cloth barrier to protect your skin.⁣
💠 Stop when the area feels numb⁣
⁣
💡 Remember: Ice helps manage symptoms, but it doesn’t speed up healing. If pain or swelling persists, it’s important to seek medical attention.⁣

Our Philosophy

Each of us enjoys life more with a sound body. In many cases, the activities you enjoy can contribute to your need for my care – playing a sport, working around the house or playing with your kids. My philosophy is that the things you love to do aren’t just the causes of your injury: they’re the things you want to get back to. Together, we can map out a treatment program that will put you back in the action.
