See a shoulder surg: If you feel that you need to pop your shoulder and it is stuck in one position at times and hurts you could have a labrial tear. This needs to be worked up and fixed.

Unstable shoulder: Shoulder is a very mobile but unstable joint, it could be due to lax ligaments or mild anatomical variations, physical therapy under supervision of a qualified physician will be first step after initial imaging like xray and MRI has been done.
