I had a cmt pull out my shoulder from its joint and now i have numbness behind the scapula and it feels "off." what do you think happened?

Stretch nerve: More than likely your therapist stretched a nerve and the muscle is sore and nerve irritated. With rest this will likely go away . Good luck!

Strained nerve: During manipulation of shoulder, sensory nerve supplying skin over the scapula may have been pulled.
