t think itâ€ll repair on its own. Or at least itâ€s very unlikely too. And the thing is...since itâ€s already compromised...something very minor could cause it to completely sever. The surgery recover for just a tear is bad enough. But I know someone whoâ€s RC supraspunianus (sp) completely severed. Iâ€d read somewhere that RC surgery is among the top three WORST surgeries to recover from. I can certainly agree with that! But I wouldnâ€t want to have it for a complete sever. It took about a year...but after complete recovery I was swimming just as fast...actually faster...than prior to the tear. I set some PRs in the few years after. For sure itâ€s no fun! But...my suggestion is to get second and third opinions and strongly consider having it surgically repaired.
