Since the first injury happened in an accident, the shoulder joint myth become weak, unstable repeated dislocation shows that the muscles ligaments and joint capsule around the shoulder or not holding firmly This can happen due to VATA imbalance and reduced joint strength You can start with internal medicine to improve joint stability and external treatment to strengthen the area Take tablets like Yogaraj guggulu- Lakshadi guggulu-one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Mahanarayana taila-gentle shoulder massage with warm oil, followed by hot water towel fomentation

Avoid sudden jerks overhead, lifting, or heavy work with the hand Gentle physiotherapy should be done Go for MRI scan, if not done Enna to look for any joint gap, or tear

Whenever the head of the humerus is displaced and loses contact with the glenoid cavity the condition is dislocation of the shoulder. Shoulder is the most common joint to dislocate as stability is compromised for mobility when compared to other joints.

* 3 type dislocation

1. Anterior dislocation - the head of the humerus lies in front of the glenoid cavity

2. Posterior dislocation - the head of the humerus lies behind the glenoid cavity

3. Subglenoid dislocation - the head of the humerus lies beneath the glenoid cavity

On examination - normal contour is lost , flattening of the shoulder joint.

If needed better - MRI to rule out in recurrent shoulder dislocation.

HELLO MANIKANTA K ,

I’m sorry to hear about your recurring shoulder dislocation issue. since it has happened three times in five years, its considered a recurrent dislocation , and its important to take this seriously to avoid permenent damage or chronic instability.

RECURRENT DISLOCATION OFTEN MEANS -ligaments and joint capsule are weakened or stretched -Rotator cuff muscles may be weak or imbalanced -there may be structural issues e.r; bankart lesion, hill-sachs lesion

AYURVEDIC APPROACH FOR RECURRENT SHOULDER DISLOCATION

1)ABHYANGA(OIL MASSAGE) -use medicated oils like mahanarayan taila or murivenna taila -warm oil massage around the shoulder(avoid deep pressure over joint) -improves blood flow, reduces vata, and strengthens muscles -daily or at least 3-4 times a week

2)PANCHAKARMA THERAPY-IN CLINIC UNDER EXPERT SUPERVISION these detoxify and rejuvenate the body , especially effective in data-related disorders like joint dislocation -PIZHICHIL- warm oil bath therapy to improve muscle tone -NJAVARAKIZHIL- bolus massage with medicated rice to strengthen tissues -BASTI KARMA- medicated enema to pacify vata dosha

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1)RASNA SAPTAKAM KASHYA- 20 ml twice daily with warm water after meals= for inflammation and joints stability

2)SIMHANAD GUGGULU- 1 tab twice daily in morning and evening

3)LAKSHADI GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily after meals

4)ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm milk at night= strengthen muscle sand nerves

DIET AND LIFESTYLE -warm, unctuous, easy to digest foods -avoid dry, cold and raw foods -regular routines, good sleep, and stress reduction -Avoid overuse of the shoulder- especially overhead or jerking movements

COMPLEMENTRY SAFE AND VERY EFFECTIVE

1)PHYSIOTHERAPY AND SHOULDER STRENGTHENING EXERCISES -focus on rotator cuff strengthening- supraspinatus, infraspinatus, terms minor, subscapularris -scapular stabilisation exercises -gradual resistance training

2)SHOULDER BRACE AND SLING -use during high-risk activities or early healing phase after dislocation

INVESTIGATIONS NEEDED 1)X-RAY(SHOULDER AP, LATERAL AND AXIALLARY VIEWS) -checks for ant bone damage(like fracture, hill-sachs lesion) -useful immediately after dislocation

2)MRI -shows soft tissue damage- labral tears(bankart lesion), rotator cuff injuries, ligament laxity

3)CT SCAN -for detailed bone mapping -useful in complex or surgical cases

If dislocations continue despite this above treatment and physiotherapy , Surgery like ARTHROSCOPIC BANKART repair may be needed.

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

Ayurveda can help support recovery and strengthen the shoulder joint, but it’s important to note that for recurrent dislocation (especially if it has happened three times), you must also consult an orthopedic doctor, as surgery or physiotherapy may be necessary to stabilize the joint.

Rx, Tab. Shallaki 2 bd Tab. Lakshadi guggulu 2 bd Tab. Triyodashang guggulu 2 bd Syp. Dashmoola arishtha 2tsf bd with equal amount of water (1hr after meal ) for one month Gentle massage with, MahaNarayan tailam Please visit nearby Panchkarma centre for further advice and treatment.

Precautions, Avoid cracking, jerking, or stretching the shoulder unnecessarily.

If shoulder becomes unstable frequently, you may need MRI imaging and orthopedic opinion for surgical repair.

Repeated dislocation can lead to chronic instability and arthritis later.

Get shoulder immobilisation done, then take these medicines - laxadi guggul 1-0-1 - Abha guggul 1-0-1 ashwagandha tablet 1-0-1 after food with water Later as mobility improves start doing shoulder strengthening exercises slowly . Apply ashwagandha+ mahanarayan oil on shoulder area daily. Follow up after 1 month.
