Recurrent Dislocation of Shoulder

• Types, Causes Treatment Options by Dr Chirag
  Patel
• Recurrent dislocation of shoulder The shoulder
  is the most mobile and, as a result, the most
  vulnerable joint in the human body.
• Due to its hypermobility and vulnerability, no
  other joint is more susceptible to injury than
  the shoulder, especially in sports.
• As a sports injury specialist in Mumbai, Dr.
  Chirag Patel treats thousands of sports injuries
  every year, and shoulder injuries top the list.
• Whether caused by sports activities or regular
  daily tasks, shoulder dislocations affect many
  individuals.
• A condition known as recurrent shoulder
  dislocation is a crucial contributor to this
  anomaly.

Different Types of Hip Surgery

• If you constantly experience shoulder dislocation
  issues even with a low-intensity workload,
  recurrent shoulder dislocation could be the
  underlying reason.
• But what exactly is recurrent shoulder
  dislocation, its causes, and how is it treated?
• Orthopaedic surgeon and shoulder specialist Dr.
  Chirag Patel has the answers.
• What is recurrent dislocation of shoulder, and
  what causes it?
• Shoulder dislocation happens when the ball of the
  shoulder joint is completely displaced from its
  socket.
• In most cases, shoulder dislocation occurs due to
  a fall on the outstretched hand, a direct blow to
  the shoulder joint.
• In rare cases, shoulder dislocation can happen
  due to non-athletic activity in persons who
  suffer from inherently loose joints.

Different Types of Hip Surgery

• Shoulder dislocation can also happen in athletes
  of sports where the shoulder takes a lot of
  stress (throwing).
• The repetitive motion in these sports can
  eventually dislocate the shoulder wholly or
  partially. The shoulder, once dislocated, has a
  higher chance of dislocation.
• Based on the cause and patient, it can happen
  multiple times for minor inconvenience in the
  joint, and this repeated shoulder dislocation is
  called recurrent shoulder dislocation.
• People suffering from chronic shoulder
  instability tend to suffer from recurrent
  shoulder dislocation.
• Shoulder dislocation caused by a traumatic
  incident may lead to shoulder instability, which
  triggers shoulder dislocation.

Different Types of Hip Surgery

• Shoulder Joint Dislocation Types
• The shoulder joints ball can dislocate in any
  direction.
• When it dislocates to the front, its called
  anterior dislocation to the back, posterior
  dislocation and below the socket, inferior
  dislocation.
• Shoulder dislocation can also happen in a
  combination of different directions, and this
  dislocation is called multi-directional
  dislocation, which happens in patients with loose
  joints, said shoulder specialist in Mumbai, Dr.
  Chirag Patel.

Different Types of Hip Surgery

• Recurrent Dislocation of Shoulder Its Treatment
• The shoulder dislocated for the first time is
  restored to its natural position without surgery.
• One may need anaesthesia or some form of
  sedative during this procedure. The shoulder is
  immobilized by keeping it close to the chest
  using a sling to enable healing.
• High-demand athletes or younger patients will
  need surgery to repair the site to prevent this
  dislocation.
• Treatment for recurrent shoulder dislocation
  varies and demands surgery, though.

Different Types of Hip Surgery

• For patients with a sedentary lifestyle, whose
  shoulder is not prone to strenuous activities,
  non-surgical treatment may suffice to treat
  recurrent dislocation.
• But for athletes and patients with an active
  lifestyle, surgery is prescribed by shoulder
  specialists in Mumbai.
• Keyhole surgery is a minimally invasive surgery
  that can be performed to tighten the lax capsule
  and reattach the dislocated components.
• Open surgery is another surgical method that
  involves transition incision-based surgery to
  repair the dislocated parts.
• In cases of bone loss, a bone graft can further
  improve the shoulders functional and anatomical
  position using a specialized surgical procedure
  called the Bristow-Latarjet procedure.
