Why is there such a large reduction in range of motion after a dislocated shoulder?

I dislocated mine last Saturday and I was able to move it without pain after about 5 days. However, It simply feels tight and I can't move it nearly as much as I used to. Its been 8 days since the injury and range of motion is slowly improving, but its still really bad. The shoulder is not swollen at all. What causes me to not be able to move it?Why is there such a large reduction in range of motion after a dislocated shoulder?you need to see a doctor.it ben 8 daysWhy is there such a large reduction in range of motion after a dislocated shoulder?All the ligaments were stretched as well.
