    Hello everyone. I hope you're all well.

    Let me explain:
    I dislocated my right shoulder 6 years ago doing a nasty move.

    I've dislocated my shoulder at least 4 times since then and I still feel a fragility for some movements. Now I've adapted with it but I still feel that if I'm not careful, it can quickly re-injure (dislocate again).

    I started boxing in a club 8 months ago and I feel that this right shoulder is causing me problems on some movements like the back arm cross (right arm). Or the back arm hook (right arm).
    I feel that it can sometimes dislocate Again. And I can't use any force.
    I do the good movement with my whole body etc (I pivot well etc.).

    So I have three questions:
    - do you have any advice for me?
    - Do you think I should adapt my boxing and change to a left-handed guard, for example?
    - Is shoulder surgery to stop it dislocating a good option for a boxer? (I'm asking if you know anyone who's had this operation, or if you've had it yourself).



    Thank you all for your replies

    Fabio

    PS: I did all the rehab exercises with and without physio. I did the weight training adapted to the shoulder. Etc. But it's all the same.
