Get exam: Shoulder injuries occur frequently w/ football. A 'common ' injury that can make itself known after u play is an ac joint injury. A fall on the point of the shoulder or a tackle can injure the joint that the clavicle ( collarbone) makes w/ the 'tip' (acromion) of the shoulder( acromioclavicular jt). See an ors for evaluation. The majority of" shoulder separations " can be treated non-operatively
