If you play contact sports, such as football or hockey, you may have dislocated your shoulder in a collision or fall. Shoulder dislocations, including partial dislocations (subluxation), can put you at a higher risk of developing a chronic condition called shoulder instability.
Shoulder dislocation is different than shoulder instability. During dislocation, the shoulder’s ball comes out of its socket. Dislocation is typically sudden, causes severe pain, and requires immediate treatment.
While shoulder dislocation can increase the risk of shoulder instability, the opposite is true, too—instability can increase the risk of dislocation.
