My daughter dislocated both knees (not at the same time but within a year and a half of each other) and she ended up having surgery on both due to some tears to muscles and ligaments etc. I know the knee is different from the shoulder but anytime you dislocate something you stand the chance of something tearing. If nothing else it will weaken the joint that gets dislocated. (this came directly from the doctor who did her knees and NewWest Sports in Kearney).

     I have never dislocated a joint so someone that has can speak to 
this better than I.  I am of the understanding that a dislocation does 
not put one out of action like a break or a fracture.  However, it is my 
understanding that each time a joint dislocates the likelihood it will 
dislocate again becomes greater.  I have heard of cases that something, 
like a shoulder, has dislocated so many times in certain individuals 
they almost can't keep it from popping out.  Now I realize Cookie isn't 
to that point but it can get to be a progressive thing if I understand 
correctly.
