Shoulder Injury?!?!?


I was playing soccer yesterday. I dove for a save, and landed with my arm outstretched. My shoulder had a funny feeling, but didn't hurt or pop. A day later, my shoulder feels funny, but doesn't hurt. It seems as though it moves more than it should, but I have nothing more than a dull pain. What's wrong, did I dislocate my shoulder, tear a cuff. What's going on?

If you'd have torn something or dislocated it, you'd be in agony. Seeing as there is little to no pain, you've probably overstretched a ligament. Rest it if you can and take an anti-inflammatory like Advil.

I'm team doctor for a pro soccer team in Scotland.
I suggest giving your shoulder a week or so to settle down. If it does then as above, a ligament injury is most likely. If the funny feelings persist and if the shoulder still feels more mobile than it ought to be then see a doctor or a physical therapist.
It's possible to sublux a shoulder (this is a step short of full dislocation) and it can happen without too much in the way of pain or other symptoms.
If in doubt - get it checked out.
Hope this helps
