The way you describe it is a recurrent dislocation, the younger you are the more is the chance of it continuing to be the same. You will require a orthopaedic surgeon opinion. You will benefit from an MR arthrogram, which will define the pathology.
Next Steps
Visit orthopaedic surgeon
Health Tips
Recurrent dislocation will cause repeated damage to the cartilage, avoid them
