Dislolcated Shoulder

[Uncle Buck]

Evening. Anyone on here ever dislocated their shoulder?

Did mine after about 20 minutes of the game last night, ouch.

Even worse was the Charlton doctor trying to pop it back in with no pain relief.

Ended up in the local hospital, which was like something out of Only Fools and Horses.

 

[Juan Albion]

Nope, sorry.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

What time did you get out of hospital?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

That is going to HURT in the morning!

 

[ali jenkins]

Are you alright mate? How did you do that?

 

[Uncle Buck]

What time did you get out of hospital?

About 115am, was fairly out of it.

Then the cabbie could not find Liverpool Street.

Still did the day on the exhibition stand.

Could have been worse then.

You didn't miss much.

Yeah sounds like a rubbish game.

If it's the first time, it'll probably go again as you've now loosened the ligaments up around it. Could need pinning if it keeps going.

A rugby playing mate did his 40+ times before it was pinned. Well, he says that anyway.

Theres quite a few people on here who have managed that painful trick. I myself am a 5 time veteran, never taken the step to having it pinned in, done mightly fine since the last time after which I got myself a good weights program and finished my basketball career....

Good luck - it'll be bloomin painful in a muscle ache way if you get bumped or move it for a few days, but after that take it easy and you should be ok....

4 times here

Painful as f***.

If they give you physio to do, make sure you do it. There's no reason why it should go again if you do the exercises properly.

I'm told that the repeated lifting of a pint glass full of cider is almost the PERFECT rehabilitation technique.

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Several times - twice requiring hospital treatment (1 for each shoulder). It REALLY hurts - you have my sympathies!!

Make sure you get the shoulder stable - it's a long road to recovery.

How did you manage that? Borrow the taxman's roller skates?

Still did the day on the exhibition stand.

Were you at Confex today?

 

[philsussex]

Dislocated my right shoulder 5 times. Had it fixed now.

Now the left has started popping out instead - last time by sneezing!

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Dislocated mine on a number of occasions, twice playing golf. Mine needs pinning and I know the surgeon well (drinking mate) but as of yet not had it done. I believe the re- cooperation time is long post op.

If you are dislocating your shoulder repeatedly get yourself checked for EDS/hypermobility. This is an increasingly diagnosed problem and has a spectrum from 1-9 so you can have it mildly or severely. It is essentially a problem producing colagin, a protein which binds tissues in the body. You can strengthen these connective tissues with weight training and sport as this helps your body produce proteins and taking a good protein suppliment. It is worth getting checked if it is a recurring problem as if not looked into can cause problems later in life.

And if it does go again, you won't feel anything.

 

[Trigger]

How do you get yourself into these pickles old boy?...

 

[Everest]

Too much
