Help, I dislocated my shoulder about a week ago and am stuck in a sling for another two weeks. How soon will it take before I can get back in the water? If anyone has suggestions, tips, etc it would be appreciated. Thanks..
You are lucky your tissues didn't tear too severely with a deformation at that degree i pushed it back into place myself. Sometimes getting it back in socket causes more damage than the dislocation. The second time was the last event I went to a hospital to have it done. You sit around and wait for hours, x-rays, medication effect and paperwork before it is actually reset. Then the bill comes. After a dozen times of doing it yourself you get competent with the process, but I hope I never have to reset it again.
