I subluxed my shoulder a few days ago from benching. I went to the Ortho today and they only took a x-ray of my chest/shoulder area. However, I have some pain on my back near my left shoulder blade. Is it possible that I injured the posterior shoulder instead of the anterior and the x-ray missed it?


the xray would see any bony abnormalities. if you have a problem with stability, rehab/therapy can help. chronic instability with lots of full dislocations may require an MRI to see if glenoid labrum is torn…..
