Message: [QUOTE="ktmracer, post: 552093, member: 16282"] i busted up my shoulder a while back during a race. at the time of the crash i just thought that i had brusied it, but when the race was over i could barely move it. the shoulder felt better after a few weeks so i began riding again. well, a couple of rides later the shoulder/arm acts like it wants to pop out of the joint (sublux sp?) it just continued to feel looser and looser. finally i decided to go get some x-rays. turns out that i have partially torn my cuff (the medical term is postierior instability) and have some bone chips just floating around from the initial crash,. well I am about 3 months into pt trying to repair the shoulder and strengthen all of the surrounding muscle to aid stability. please, if you hurt your shoulder (or anything else for that matter) ATLEAST GO GET SOME XRAYS/MRI OR TALK TO A DOCTOR. it is much easier to fix the first time you injure it.
