  • i've had quite a few more than 6 dislocations... probably upwards of 15 in the last.. 14 years, as i have loose ligaments etc.

    what is the recommended rehab time for this procedure and does the patient regain full motion of the shoulder joint? i heard in older procdures that motion becomes limited post op. i play volleyball and would like too keep full motion of the joint.

  • Rehab can take 6-12 months, depending on your sport. It's not uncommon to lose some motion- even with the arthroscopic technique. However, with proper surgery and therapy, you should be able to achieve all your goals.
