Dislocated should last week my arm is dead now and it's not strong as if the mussel is weak what could this be?

Be checked: You should be checked. The most common reason for the arm to feel dead is that the brachial plexus, which is the group of nerves that supply the arm, at have been stretched in the same injury in which the shoulder was dislocated. But it is also possible you have sustained some associated vascular injury, which might need urgent treatment.
