Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had several instances where my left shoulder seems to dislocate from the socket. This has seemed to be happening more often, and takes very little stress to cause it. The first time I can remember dislocating this shoulder was a few years ago while snowboarding. Ever since my shoulder seems to just pop out of the socket when small forces are applied such as when reaching up to catch a basketball one handed with my arm extended above my head. It is very painful and happens consistently.
HI Well come to HCM If the shoulder dislocated on and often then this could be surgical condition and first of all shoulder need to be investigated and MRI study would be the best one, along with that better to have orthopedic opinion, till then it is advisable to put the arm in sling, take care and have a nice day.
