4 months after labral tear surgery

by Debbie
(California)

I had surgery to repair a slap tear, bicep tendon reattachment and decompression 4 months ago. I still have quite a bit of pain and haven't had a decent night's sleep since the surgery. My range of motion is limited, especially in external rotation. I do the stretches and go to physical therapy. Is this part of the normal recovery and will it continue much longer?
