Shoulder Injury - This Morning I Got Down On My Hands/knees To | Practo Consult

Shoulder Injury

Asked for Male, 24 Years

This morning I got down on my hands/knees to crawl, and once I put weight on my left arm I heard a loud crack in my left shoulder. I felt a popping sensation as well. As I collapsed to the ground in pain I felt another pop and heard the crack again. After the second crack my left arm went numb for about 10 min. Most of the pain went away shortly put it still feels like my shoulder is weak, and it hurts a bit if I move certain ways. Most of the pain sits on my middle deltoid.

Hi. I think you has dislocated your shoulder and again it has come back to its place. Please get yourself checked by a sports medicine specialist. In first time dislocation you need to immobilise the shoulder for 3 weeks and you may have good chances of healing. If this was a repeated dislocation then you need to get your xray and mri done to find out how much tear has happened in your soft tissues. Shoulder surgery in expert and trained hands gives wonderful results. So don't worry. But please do not ignore and delay.
