View allI've had recurrent shoulder dislocations it's happened over 1,000 times now. My doctor recommended surgery, but I'm unsure if it'll help. Will I be able to return to playing sports after the procedure? Does surgery guarantee a full recovery, or are there other exercises I can try to strengthen my shoulder instead?
Recurrent shoulder dislocations benefit most from arthroscopic Bankart repair—surgery helps resume sports with low recurrence if rehab is followed well.

I'm feeling really stressed today, and now I have this pain in my right shoulder and arm. It's so bad that I can't even lift my arm above my head without it hurting. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
The shoulder and arm pain you're experiencing, especially if it's provoked by stress and affects your ability to lift your arm, could be related to musculoskeletal issues such as a strain or tendonitis. However, if there is any concern that the pain might be cardiac-related, it's important to rule out conditions like angina, especially given your stress. I recommend visiting your healthcare provider to evaluate the cause of your pain and ensure appropriate treatment. They may suggest rest, ice, and possibly anti-inflammatory medications, or they may perform further tests to rule out any cardiac involvement.
