Do people 2-3yrs post stoke who already have ~2cm shoulder subluxation without pain need to continue wearing a shoulder brace/sling if they have no pain? What if they are highly contracted with nil laxity in their subluxation vs laxity (i.e can move the humeral head upwards)?

2 ResponsesI am a new grad physio with 2 patients 2-3years post stroke both with subluxation but nil shoulder pain. Neither like wearing their slings and I have looked into ordering more appropriate shoulder support which is more expensive than my patients would like to pay for something they despise having to wear.
