Causes of Shoulder Instability

Shoulder instability happens when the upper arm bone is popped out of the shoulder socket, usually as a result of overuse or a sudden injury. Sometimes, people are naturally predisposed to Multidirectional Instability, where the ligaments are loose and pop the shoulder in many directions. A major injury is normally the cause of a preliminary dislocation. Instability can also happen over-time when repeating actions that inflame and degrade the shoulder, or socket. Contact sports injuries are common causes of a dislocated shoulder, as well as work-related inflammation from repeating a task. Visit the West Covina or Brentwood/West LA locations of Samimi Orthopaedic Group where their accomplished doctors can design a specified treatment for your shoulder instability.
