Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take for a dislocated shoulder to heal? + –

Most mild to moderate shoulder dislocations can improve within a few weeks, provided you follow recommended treatments such as bracing and physical therapy. Severe cases or repeated dislocations may require several months of rehab or even surgery. Proper rest and immobilization are vital early on, and a guided exercise program helps rebuild strength and stabilize the joint.

Do I always need surgery for shoulder instability? + –

Not necessarily. Recurrent shoulder subluxations or minor dislocations often improve with conservative approaches like bracing, muscle-strengthening exercises, and activity modification. Surgery might be recommended if you have a history of repeated dislocations, significant labral tears, or if non-surgical methods fail to prevent further instability.

Can I continue to exercise with an unstable shoulder? + –

Light, controlled exercises that don’t strain the shoulder can help maintain strength, but intense overhead motions or heavy lifting may worsen instability. Focus on movements that keep the joint supported, and consider wearing a stabilizing brace to reduce the risk of re-injury. Always consult a healthcare professional before resuming workout routines.

Which brace is best for preventing shoulder re-dislocation? + –

Look for a shoulder brace or sleeve that offers firm lateral support, adjustable straps to limit excessive rotation, and a snug yet comfortable fit. Some models, like the Breg Curtis Shoulder Stabilizing Sleeve, include compressive sleeves to reduce instability and prevent subluxations. Your choice ultimately depends on the severity of your injury, your daily activities, and the level of cushioning or immobilization you prefer.

How do I sleep comfortably with a dislocated shoulder? + –

Most medical professionals suggest sleeping in a semi-upright position, like using a recliner or propping pillows under your arm for support. Wearing a secure sling or shoulder immobilizer during rest also limits painful movements. If pain persists, consider adding cold therapy or anti-inflammatory measures as advised by your doctor.
