Shoulder Pain in EDS: Is it Normal?

Has anyone else with EDS woken up with pain in their shoulder and when you look it’s hanging slightly lower and more forward than the other shoulder? Should I be worried about this and is there a way to fix it?

My shoulder would do that but it’s because I dislocated it a while ago. because of EDS, my shoulder surgery did not work, however there are many braces which can help to hold it in place.

happens all the time, i have one extremely loose shoulder and it dislocates probably close to 10 to 12 times a day. i found a physical therapist who has worked with eds before and she’s helped a lot with all my dislocations so i would highly recommend finding a pt specialist
