🚨 Shoulder Dislocation: What You Need to Know 🚨

A shoulder dislocation happens when the head of the humerus slips out of its socket — either completely or partially (subluxation). It can occur from falls, sports collisions, or forceful arm motions.

Signs to watch for:
• Severe pain
• Swelling & bruising
• Visible deformity
• Weakness & limited movement

Treatment typically starts with a closed reduction to reposition the joint, followed by immobilization and physical therapy. In severe or recurrent cases, surgical repair may be necessary.

🛠️ Shoulder Arthroscopy Tip
If you’re considering shoulder surgery, arthroscopy might be the best route. With smaller incisions, less tissue damage, faster healing, and significantly less scarring, it helps you get back to normal sooner.

Recovering? Cold therapy right after surgery, keeping dressings for about 24 hours, and light day-to-day movement within several days can make all the difference.

Feel Good Friday ❤️
A Minnesota pizza owner saw people eating from the dumpster out back and began sharing free food with those who were hungry. And when the community found out about his kindness, they donated to cover the cost of the extra food he shares!

“Please do not eat out of our dumpster,” wrote Kolstad. "If you are that desperate for food, please come ask.”
