why is it easier to dislocate a shoulder than a hip?

Q: I have known athletes who have dislocated shoulders all the time, but how come athletes barely ever dislocate their hips? Why is this?

A: Both the shoulder and the hip are ball-and-socket joints.The shoulder has a wider range of motion and are not supported by muscle groups as large as those that surround the hip joint. This free range of motion (the most in a human body) also contributes to its inherent instability. The muscles and ligaments in the shoulder are not a strong and not as balanced as in the hip joint.The hip joint is reinforced by three main ligaments.At the front of the joint, the strong iliofemoral ligament attaches from the pelvis to femur. This Y-shaped ligament is also known as the ligament of Bigelow. This ligament seeks to resist excessive extension of the hip joint. It is often considered to be the strongest ligament in the human body. The pubofemoral ligament attaches across the front of the joint from the pubis bone of the pelvis to the femur. This ligament is orientated more inferiorly than the iliofemoral ligament and reinforces the inferior part of the hip joint capsule. It also blends with the medial parts of the iliofemoral ligament. The posterior of the hip joint capsule is reinforced by the ischiofemoral ligament that attaches from the ischial part of the acetabular rim to the femur. Basically, the hip is more solidly constructed than the shoulder. The shoulder has a wider range of motion. We sacrifice stability of the joint for the range of motion the shoulder offers.
