What are the symptoms of habitual dislocation of the shoulder joint?

If our shoulder joint has been dislocated before, it will be more likely to dislocate again in the future. Habitual dislocation of the shoulder joint will cause local swelling, deformity of the joint, and inability to move freely, which requires timely connection and correction.

1. Local swelling

Due to the rupture and bleeding of blood vessels in the soft tissue around the injured joint and the inflammatory response after soft tissue injury, obvious swelling will appear within a short time after the acromioclavicular joint dislocation occurs. Local pain and tenderness After acromioclavicular joint dislocation occurs, severe pain and tenderness are caused by damage to local soft tissues such as muscles, ligaments and joint capsules. Loss of joint mobility is due to the destruction of the normal joint structure, which causes the joint to lose its pivotal function. It is also accompanied by severe soft tissue damage, pain, and muscle spasms, causing the damaged joint to lose its normal mobility.

2. Deformity

Compared with the healthy side, obvious deformity can be found at the acromioclavicular joint dislocation, abnormal limb morphology, and deformities such as limb extension, rotation or shortening may occur. X-ray examination can further clarify the degree and direction of dislocation, as well as the presence of combined fractures, old dislocations, myositis ossificans or ischemic necrosis. In addition, dislocation may involve and compress nearby nerves and large blood vessels and cause damage, so attention should be paid during examination.

3. Once the joint is dislocated , our limbs will not be able to move freely, and it will also cause us very severe pain. In short, after the experts have talked about a series of relevant knowledge and explained in detail the symptoms of acromioclavicular joint dislocation, we have a deep understanding of the symptoms of this disease. If we have such symptoms in life, we should go to the hospital for standardized examination as soon as possible.
