I think it really has a lot to do with the way peoples joints are formed how much or how little cartilage one has and so on. After all some people can dislocate joints at will and pop them back in - obviously with some pain, but no evident long-term damage. Also cartilage can have a different hardness based on individual. In the case of the OP I'd say his cartilage is rather hard, whereas someone who could dislocate a joint at will has soft cartilage. I've heard that shark's fin supplement pills (you can get these at most drug stores and the 'health' aisle in grocery stores) will help with softening up cartilage and joints in general and also will help recover from such an injury over time. Oh goodness..... please don't talk about physiology if you don't know what you're talking about. How do you even know if he has a articular cartilage type injury (in this case likely glenoid artiicular cartilage or glenoid labrum)? MOST problems with dislocation are problems with muscular instability coupled with loose or stretched out ligaments. People need to stop offering advice or their own experience. Let the man see a professional. (this is everyone... not just you). | ||

No, this is just a stupid myth perpetuated by the Japanese, who make a killing off of selling something that has no proven effects. | ||
