Partial Rotator Cuff Tear???

I just got my MRI results back today and it says that I have a partial tear of the distal rotator cuff tendon near its insertion site on the humerus with subacromial/subdeltoid bursa effusion. My ortho doesnt seem to be that concerned about it I just have to continue PT…Ive been out of work for 6 weeks already, and even though Im getting work comp, I still would like to get back to work soon. Anyone ever had a partial thickness tear? And if so did it heal with just PT or was surgery required?

Why, Now?16 Months After Rotator Cuff Repair, No Relief, And Now The Left Shoulder Is Starting To Kill Me?

Dr. doesn’t have much to say. MRI shows multiple partial thickness tears in both shoulders. I am active and have major intention to heal. I now have atrophy, as in skin hanging from tiny arms. I have worked past major pain in both pilates and yoga, no relief, no muscle? Can’t sleep, searing pain. If anyone has had similar issues, please share offer any comments. Thank you,thank you
