      How an Arm Sling or Shoulder Sling Can Help Treat Shoulder Dislocation

      The shoulder is one of the most frequently dislocated joints because the top of the arm bone sits in a very shallow socket. Ironically, what makes the shoulder extremely mobile also makes it very unstable, and dislocation can happen. This is where an arm sling or dislocated shoulder sling can help.

      A shoulder dislocation is often caused by a heavy fall onto the arm, and the arm bone will pop out of its socket, causing the supporting tissues to overstretch or tear. Even though the shoulder has been reconnected, it still takes around twelve to sixteen weeks for a dislocated shoulder to heal. Your best option, if it is a dislocation that doesn't need surgery, is using a sling for a dislocated shoulder to aid in your recovery.

      Signs of a dislocated shoulder may include the following: an extremely painful arm that is difficult to move, the presence of a lump or bulge under the skin in front of the shoulder, and a rather squarish (as opposed to round) appearance of the shoulder. Wearing a shoulder dislocation sling is an excellent way to treat this type of injury.

      Patients who have suffered a dislocated shoulder need to seek medical attention immediately. Most patients who suffer extreme shoulder dislocation undergo revision stabilization surgery, and studies show that patients who suffered extreme dislocation of the shoulder who chose to undergo surgery fared better stability-wise than those who were treated non-operatively. As a result, using shoulder slings after surgery is often recommended by the doctor. It's no surprise because a shoulder surgery sling can help speed up the recovery of the injured area that has undergone an operation.
