@senjuti In the acute phase of injury, pain management is initially required before rehabilitation. Sleeping with a pillow under the trunk and arm is often recommended to decrease tension in supraspinatus tendon. Injectable steroids are also prescribed as found suitable by the treating doctors. During recovery phase, pain free strengthening within range of motion and proprioception training is done. For partial or full thickness, surgical options are also available.
