popping sensation in shoulder after fall Posted: 01-22-08 05:36am
So, on the 5th, I went snowboarding and
ended up falling on my left side. my
shoulder was the first to hit, and tore I
think my AC ligament. Anyway, sometimes
when I reach across my chest, there's a
popping sensation. A light pop. Any idea
what this is?

How are you reaching across your chest?
Can you better describe the motion?

say, your left arm is the arm on a clock,
keep your arm touching your body and let
it hang at 6 o clock. Then move your arm
clock wise to 9 o clock. That's where
there is a pop when my arm is fully
extended, then as I bring it back to 6 o
clock, there is another pop, like a pop
out.
The pop is louder and... more noticeably
felt, since I rolled on the ground(not
super hard, but did make my shoulder a
little sore when pushing myself up off the
ground, now there is minimal or no pain in
my shoulder) snowboarding two days ago.

Perhaps cartilage shifting around from the
injury. Perhaps ligament tension on the
bone. You'll need an orthopedic
specialist to diagnose it. Can you get it
checked out?
