Dislocated shoulder at Cannon today. And Vista was skiing so great too. Popped it back in on trail. Waiting in Urgent care at home for a X-ray. Need to up Din to 10.5
Bone fragment fracture(non-displace) of the proximal humerus. No surgery. But season is toast. 3 months for full recovery he thinks.
All ready thinking of it. I was looking for deals in April for heli skiing but that does not look good.Man. Hopefully you get lucky and heal quick. I'd think this warrants a trip to Chile this summer to make up for time lost
Looking better
Well finally got to the urgent care place back in CT ( after hurting myself on Thursday and skiing with my gf for 2 more days). They think my shoulder is definitely dislocated and I have to make an appointment with an ortho. It only pops out of socket when I twist my arm in a certain way and then it pops back in so hopefully it's not too too bad.
Bummer. Hope it's just a one time issue and the joint heals up to prevent it happening again in the future
This thread (and the SL clinic thread) make me want to curl up on the couch. It seems to be an especially injurious season. Indicator of the conditions?
