so i have been training bjj for a little over a month now(iam a proud owner of a white belt =] ),
recently in sparing i went for a sloppy hip toss and my sparing partner got my back while standing i grabbed his arm to try to defend the choke. he trips me and i land on my elbow and when i hit the mat i knew something was wrong i was in allot of pain and my sensei told me my shoulder was dislocated.
so i went to the hospital to get it reset. they put it back in and take x-rays, there was no muscle or bone damage so that was lucky. they told me it would be 4-6 weeks before it is fully recovered. mainly im wondering weather i will be able to train again as soon as they say, because i know that since it happened once it will be more likely to happen now.
oh also im 18 so im pretty young still don't know if that changes anything. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
