You can’t really heal a slap tear, your labrum doesn’t get a lot of blood flow. It’ll scar over eventually and maybe you’ll get lucky with it healing in a non shitty way. If it scars over badly and doesn’t heal in a half decent manner then you’re looking at repairing the tear and debriding the are which is extremely painful and takes a lot longer to recover from.
If it doesn’t bother you, I wouldn’t fix it immediately but instead focus on building the rotator cuff up so that surgery is easier. But since you got an mri it’s bothering you in some way so maybe getting it ASAP is better. Since you wrestle it’s going to make your shoulder unstable which means you can get a rotator cuff tear more easily.
Since you’re trying to use AAS, you’re going to put more muscle on which will probably cause further joint degradation because you’ll be moving heavy weight without giving your joints and ligaments time to build up. So you could potentially dislocate your shoulder doing something simple like benching just because it won’t be able to sustain the weight you’ll be doing etc.
If you don’t get it repaired the outlook is something like the following
25% chain you stay pain free for your life
50% chance you dislocate it and have to get the surgery anyway
25% chance you traumatically dislocate it and you damage your rotator cuff and bone structure in the area.
End of the day you’re up shits creek without a paddle. It’s never going to be the same whither you get surgery or not. It’ll always be jacked up to some degree. Thats just how the shoulder works when it gets damaged.
Pick your poison but think about the long term. I’d get it fixed while you’re young and you can heal faster. Don’t wait till you’re 40 to get it fixed because the scar tissue build up will make it a million times worse.
Ps I’ve had shoulder surgery for a similar thing, though mine was 100% tear Ant to Post with scar tissue build up and bone degradation
