Shoulder Instability - Causes and Risk Factors

Significant trauma to a previously normal joint, causing partial dislocation (subluxation) or dislocation of the shoulder joint, can lead to joint instability.
Repetitive overhead motions can cause wear and tear of the joint and stretch the capsule that surrounds the shoulder joint, inherently making the joint loose and unstable.
Congenital factors such as hyperlaxity syndrome can also cause a general looseness in the joint and the surrounding ligaments, tendons and muscles.
