A dislocated shoulder is a condition in which the head of the humerus is detached from the glenoid fossa. [2] Symptoms include shoulder pain and instability. [ 2 ] Complications may include a Bankart lesion , Hill-Sachs lesion , rotator cuff tear , or injury to the axillary nerve .
A Bankart lesion is a type of shoulder injury that occurs following a dislocated shoulder. [3] It is an injury of the anterior (inferior) glenoid labrum of the shoulder. [ 4 ] When this happens, a pocket at the front of the glenoid forms that allows the humeral head to dislocate into it.
Acromioclavicular joint dislocation is a common injury to the shoulder and is occurs most often in athletes. [5] This injury has a higher prevalence in men compared to women and approximately 5 men for every 1 women experience this type of injury. [5] Amongst women, the most common sport that lead to this injury type is cycling. [5]
A lisfranc injury is a dislocation or fracture-dislocation injury at the tarsometatarsal joints. A subtalar dislocation, or talocalcaneonavicular dislocation, is a simultaneous dislocation of the talar joints at the talocalcaneal and talonavicular levels. [45] [46]
Medical history (the patient tells the doctor about an injury). For shoulder problems the medical history includes the patient's age, dominant hand, if injury affects normal work/activities as well as details on the actual shoulder problem including acute versus chronic and the presence of shoulder catching, instability, locking, pain, paresthesias (burning sensation), stiffness, swelling, and ...

Because of the mechanism of injury, apprehension of anterior dislocation is common with provocative maneuvers. Hill–Sachs lesions have been classified as "engaging" or "non-engaging", with engaging lesions defined by the ability of the glenoid to sublux into the humeral head defect during abduction and external rotation.
An injury to the axillary nerve normally occurs from a direct impact of some sort to the outer arm, though it can result from injuring a shoulder via dislocation or compression of the nerve. The axillary nerve comes from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus at the coracoid process and provides the motor function to the deltoid and teres ...
