No, manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) does not frequently cause shoulder dislocation, nor does it typically lead to recurrent instability. Frank glenohumeral dislocation during or after MUA is an exceptionally rare complication.
Next Steps
next step after manipulation , continue physiotherapy which is very happy in your case
Health Tips
Avoid active heavy lifting or pushing/pulling
Avoid sudden ballistic or jerky movements
