For injuries such as a torn labrum, a rotator cuff tear, etc. in younger, active people, surgery is frequently the route chosen.

If you're 80 and tear your labrum, yeah just take some pills, do some physical therapy. If you're 25 and use your shoulder regularly, probably get it fixed.

But like others have said, it is hard to tell what exactly you have done to your shoulder until you get an MRI. Also, if you go to a good orthopedic specialist/surgeon he/she will be able to perform several tests to help identify the potential injury and guage the severity of the injury as well.
