Dislocated shoulder, "congenital defect".

    I dislocated my shoulder for the first time last september while kickboxing. I threw a jab and overextended and it came out.

    Since then it's been really unstable, I had an MRI which showed it to be a type 3 congenital problem that means my shoulder will dislocate easily and there is no surgery that could fix it.

    Yesterday it came out while playing football and I spent the night in hospital.

    It's really getting to me that I'm going to be like this for the rest of my life, does anyone have any extra info on congenital shoulder instabilities or possible surgical procedures that can stabilise it? It feels like every sport I play is yet another sport I can't actually play at all... I'm only 25.

    This happened to a couple of my mates.
    Both of them did feck all about it for ages and the respective shoulders just kept falling out.
    Then both of them went to see physios and doctors about it.
    One of them still plays rugby.

    Basically see a professional not an internet forum.
    Its probably not a sporting death sentence.

    This breaches the forum charter I'm afraid, no medical advice can be offered.
