Will i have a full, normal, range of motion after a dislocated shoulder surgery?

Generally yes: Generally it would be expected that you have return of full motion after shoulder dislocation surgery, but specifics will depend on the type of dislocation, chronicity of the dislocation, and type of surgery performed. Consult with your orthopedist for your specific situation.

No: Probably not right away- and you will need rehab to keep things moving.
