How to speed up recovery of a dislocated shoulder injured in august in a wrestling practice?

MRI: You have a reasonably high chance of having a rotator cuff tear or a labral tear following a glenohumeral (shoulder) dislocation. I would recommend you see a local orthopaedic surgeon and based on your exam you should have an MRI or an mr arthrogram to evaluate your injury.
