Frequently asked questions
What should I do if my shoulder dislocates?
Go to A&E to have it put back and rule out a fracture. Afterwards, physiotherapy is key to regaining stability and preventing it from happening again.
Can shoulder injuries be prevented?
Yes. A strength and mobility programme designed for throwers reduces the risk. We adapt it to your position and playing load.
