Shoulder surgery: The hope is that your dislocated shoulder can be stabilized with surgery allowing you to return to normal play. Success rates for shoulder instability are generally good (>85%). Many factors can influence how you recover but overall, you have reason to anticipate a functional recovery!

Not enough info: Was there damage to the capsule or labrum from the partial dislocation? Did you see md? Was pt recommended? Did you have surgery before? What was done? Potentially can help dislocation with arthroscopic reconstruction.
