What is shoulder dysplasia?

[00:00:00]I have a right shoulder that doctors tell me I cannot fix, but I'm going to prove them wrong. In my last video about this, I mentioned about my glenoid dysplasia and my labrum tear. I think a lot of people don't understand exactly what that means, so I'm going to go into further detail about that. Yes, I have a labrum tear. I can get surgery on that, but if I did, it would just come right back. It would fail because what's happening is I have dysplasia. I'm going to kind of explain what that means.

[00:00:25]Glenoid dysplasia is a rare development developmental I cannot speak abnormality of the shoulder. This term glenoid dysplasia refers to malformations in the lower rim of the glenoid, the socket of the shoulder. Glenoid dysplasia severe abnormal abnormalities and bone loss of the back part of the lower rim posteroinferior tear rim. These words are so hard of the shoulder socket or glenoid are clearly visible on an x-ray as indicated by the blue arrow on the right and most image and I'll show you that if I can flip it around.

[00:00:57]So, that's what mine looks like and you can see all the This is not mine, obviously, but it This is very similar to how my shoulder is. You can see that it's grinding. So, what's happening is my shoulder is constantly floating basically on the bone because there's bone loss in my glenoid, which is this, you know, that and it's like this right now. And so, that's just going to continue to tear up my labrum. So, there is no fixing my labrum. What needs to be fixed is the bone. Now, currently I've been told that I cannot have a reverse shoulder and that is mainly because I am 23 years old and that is frowned upon in the medical community. Oh, yes, it's medical politics that makes it so I cannot have a fixed shoulder. Um so, we're going to look into other countries. That is the goal right now.

[00:01:40]I'm looking into options outside of country because I don't think anyone in the US is going to want to work on my shoulder. That's kind of where we're at right now.

[00:01:49]Hope this helps you understand it a little bit better.
