It really depends on how big the tear(s) are. Micro tears can heal with PT, but larger tears are sometimes required to be fixed surgically. As far as HGH, I'm sure some of the people with personal experience will chime in, so maybe there will be a solution. The only problem is it could be as expensive as getting surgery, and you have no idea whether the stuff you're getting if legitimate. Lots of HGH being sold is fake.
One thing you could try that quick, has some good reports of working and is perfectly legal is TB500. You can get it from ar-r which you can click on the advertisement above the page taking you directly to their site. They are completely legit and sell high quality products. They offer everything you'll need, and the shots are easy and painless.
I wish you luck, as I know how crummy shoulder injuries are. Just make sure you don't wreck your shoulder further, and at least get it checked out. An MRI can usually offer evidence as to how big the tear is.
Prolotherapy is also sometimes you can look into. The science behind that is to cause inflammation to the injured site to force healing into the area. Collagen will then form and begin doing its work. You can also take prostaglandin supplements designed to speed recovery. If you do that, you'll need to stay away from NSAIDs which work to destroy prostaglandins, so keep that in mind. Prolotherapy is also expensive and can be a bit painful, but many people, including some guys on the forum, seem to benefit from it greatly.
Anyway, I hope that helps, and feel better.
