Dislocated Shoulder



A partial shoulder dislocation means the head of the upper arm bone is partially out of the socke. A complete shoulder dislocation means it's all the way out of the shoulder socket. Both partial and complete shoulder dislocations cause pain and unsteadiness in the shoulder.

The shoulder joint can dislocate forward, backward, or downward. A common type of shoulder dislocation is when the shoulder slips forward. This means the upper arm bone moved forward and out of its socket. It may happen when the arm is put in a throwing position.
