Shoulder dislocation: When a joint such as the shoulder is dislocated,trauma invariably occurs to the supporting muscles and ligaments, so. Post injury one will experience varying amounts of spasm and pain for 2-3 weeks.Younger patients ( under age of 21 ) have much higher chances of additional dislocations. Most patients over 25 are rehabilitated with progessive pt program and most resume full activities .
