A member asked:
Is it possible to dislocate your shoulder on purpose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some People Can: There is a certain subset of shoulder instability that has a voluntary component. This is usually in people that are "loose jointed" and it often involves a pattern of muscle firing that pulls the shoulder in and out of joint.
