Please doc, fell off a bike 3 yrs agoand landedon my right arm.Ever since my arm dislocates at the least opportunity when i least xpect it .bn 2 abt 3 local orthopedics bt to no avail.need advice urgently b4 the nxt dislocation

Call 25292700, the solution could just be around the corner.

You've probably damaged the soft tissue of that joint-hence the recuurent dislocation.

What you really need to do is to see a REPUTABLE Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at one of the tertiary health centres in the country.

It is quite possible you might need an arthroscopic repair of the damaged liagment/cartilage or you might have to live with it- a lot of people do actually (& some folks because its happened to them so many times,can actually on their own pop the joint back into position without having to go to the casualty!)

I say the latter because you said the initial accident happened about 3 years ago,so im not so sure if anything drastic can be done now.


Best see a Consultant Orthopaedic Consulatant for assessment,
