I dislocated my right shoulder 5 times in 2 years as a teen racing. had surgery at 17 and it never popped out again, but I can not throw a ball-except like a girl, ruined my school ball career. Left shoulder came out 4 times thru the years and had it fixed in 86. It was pretty good but just like the right one anything like throwing or over head lifting and it felt weak and about to pop out again. Well in 07 it did pop out at work. Got it fixed and was good for about a year and then one day just went bad on me. Still is weak and range of motion is poor, clicks and pops. I think the labrum came loose again.

 

So my moral is to let it heal the first time, dont keep racing or doing anything other than what the therapy says is OK. Once it goes bad then its bad the rest of your life, it will never be the same again. Surgery can tighten it up, but it still is a bad joint and prone to popping again.
