Yeah, I dont know how it happened, but this bastard popped out of the socket.
How many days do I see being out of work?

He got real technical at this point about the labrum and how it works with the glenoid at various ages. He said that if the labrum is torn, it wouldnt heal and kids that do sports or swim have a tendency to have this happen again and again. I am going to ask him about this again, unless someone could give their opinion on the matter cuz I thought because I was older, I would be more susceptible to this vs. a growing child. |

Since Thursday, my shoulder has felt pretty good. The doc told me to raise my shoulders as if doing a front raise and I had no pain. He said that was pretty good. He spoke about how the labrum could be stretched or torn, but didnt really say I had that. He said it will be tender cuz its only been 4 days. "You dont have to wear the sling, but no overhead presses, abductions, or any sort of wide pressing movement." I am going to see him again in 2 weeks. A funny thing he told me was that it "wasnt likely" that a dislocation would occur at an increased rate beCAUSE of my age.

There wasnt any problems with my joint as far as the x-ray showed. He also told me how to pop it back in place should this occur again. |
