You know its bad when the Doc calls his apprentice entourage to come look at the sonar of the k@k you got up to

 

He says the way it popped out only happens in about 2% of cases. They almost never see it. The shoulder was popped out the back with so much axial force that the ‘collar bone’ and ball of the shoulder basically sawed a v-shaped channel into each other. He now wants me to go get an MRI so he can see where that bone ended up and what happened to the ligaments so he can advise on s way forward. FML

 

Edit: the good news is I don't have to wear a sling anymore because apparently it wont make any difference haha

The way my orthopod explained it to me is that a shoulder will almost never dislocate without it either breaking something or tearing ligaments. The ones where you just pop it back in and carry on with life and not have problems are the true exceptions. Yes, I agree that the scan is necessary to give all the right info before making the final decision about how to deal with it. Holding thumbs for you.
