Specializes in Pain Management

Shoulder Dislocation: Go to ER or your PCP immediately if you are concerned. If this is a shoulder dislocation, you may risk nerve damage to various nerves if it doesn't improve or reset. Also could you have torn a muscle in your rotator cuff that is also possible. Either way it should be looked right away.
