I had a similar soft tissue injury in my shoulder (knocked off bike by a black cab), after having physio for ages with no improvement I was offered surgery. The operation (non keyhole) involved stitching the membrane back onto the bone. Brace on for 8 weeks, physio for a further 6 months given all clear, showing daughter front crawl at pool guess what happened? Re operated and although I'm repaired I still have limited movement in my shoulder. Moral of the story have the cartilage removed.
