[|Human|] My husband had a dislocated shoulder one week ago, which was reduced in the ER. He s been wearing an immobilizer ever since. He is still having considerable pain, and his arm is now badly swollen from shoulder to just above wrist. The skin is also a grey color. Is such swelling normal following a dislocation reduction?
[|AI|]  Hi, I value your concern regarding the symptoms. I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion I would first like to tell you that swelling is not usual after the dislocation have been reduced, the cause could be1 shoulder still not reduced2 too tight immobilizer3 associated fracture.4 Patient not resting or 5 Infection.to rule out we need an X-ray of reduction along with the previous X-ray with dislocation.
