Possible tear… Advice?

Happy Friday everyone,

Long story short. I had labrum surgery 13 years ago from a wrestling injury. I injured the same shoulder at work in December. Finally got into an ortho specialist a month later. It was a fast appointment. Basically saying he thinks it’s a rotator cuff and bicep tear. Because it’s comp they’re sending me to PT which he said will likely not help at all. I’ve been going for two weeks while waiting for comp to approve an mri. I have a ton of constant pain in the front of the shoulder down to my elbow. Sometimes numbness in my hand. Limited range of motion. Only 84% forward and up and 80% sideways and up. They have me on just anti inflammatory medicine. I guess my questions are has anyone dealt with this type of pain? How long is comp usually to approve an MRI? Is there anything I should do to help with the pain? Also, I’m just nervous I go through all of this and they don’t find anything.
