Undiagnosed shoulder dislocation caused my shoulder to collapse.
I was assaulted in 2014 and my shoulder was dislocated. The medical doctors did not treat it properly and 7 months later, my right shoulder collapsed and I was diagnosed with avascular Osteonecrosis of the right humoral head. At that time I was told I needed a joint replacement. I was able to have my partial joint replacement surgery in November 2018 and was expecting improvement in my range of motion and pain in my neck, arm, shoulder, shoulder blade and lower back associated with it. However it’s been almost two years and I am still having severe debilitating pain. I can however now, slowly lift my right arm above my head. I feel like my alignment is off and it causes pinched nerves in neck and right shoulder blade.
