How To Prevent Shoulder Dislocation?

To prevent a shoulder dislocation care must be taken to avoid falls and to wear protective gear when taking part in sports. Regular exercise should be done to maintain strength and flexibility in your joints and muscles.

Once a shoulder has been dislocated, the chances of recurrence are high, especially in younger athletes. Being consistent with the prescribed strength and stability exercises may reduce the likelihood of future dislocations.

In cases where therapy is not enough to prevent repeated occurrences, surgery may be required to repair or tighten the tissues that hold the joint in place.
