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 joint’s ball can dislocate in any direction. • When it dislocates to the front, it’s 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 shoulder’s functional and anatomical position using a specialized surgical procedure called the Bristow-Latarjet procedure.
