Scapular Dyskinesis

Talk with the coach.  He should be able to give the speech about having him whole for the Spring season is better than wasting his health for a few meaningless fall tournaments...that is if he is a good coach.  Then it isn't the parent being careful with their child, it's the coach telling his player.

Captain, if your son gets the problem properly addressed and corrected, he will have plenty of opportunity to continue down the baseball road.  Make sure he is dealing with sports docs and PT's who understand proper treatment and help identify cause. 

A quick search on the ailment shows this will not be a speedy two week process and then back to playing.  Forget about the travel tourneys coming up this fall.  Assure your son that he will have a solid shot at a great HS baseball experience (and maybe beyond) but only if he takes all the right steps to get his current scap issues addressed.  Of course he is very upset.  It's very hard for a young teen to see past right now.  Only the parents will know what buttons to push to adjust the lens further out. 

PS - just read CaCO3Girl post about talking with coach... that may be a good avenue as well, depending on the coach and how well he knows your son.

I don't have specific insight with this condition, but after having to go through a few months of rehab due to shoulder issues I certainly can sympathize.

While this is certainly a setback, if your son follows the prescribed rehab he will probably come back healthy and stronger than before.

Of course the big issue to deal with is - what is the underlying cause of the injury? That may take a good therapist with experience in throwing injuries to figure out.

I looked back at some of your older posts and it looks like you are in Florida.  Which part?  I may be able to point you in the direction of some guys who can help.

 we live in the orlando area, got a great sports ortho and PT was a catcher in high school worked well with him after he torn his tricep a couple years ago

Go see Randy Sullivan at The Armory in Brandon, Fl. He was a catcher as well.

I don't know why, but I love this username.

Good deal.  A lot of players end up with a run of the mill ortho and PT because that is all that is available.  Someone who specializes in sports injuries is certainly the way to go.

As Boone mentioned, I highly recommend Randy Sullivan as well. Once your son is cleared to throw, it may be worthwhile to visit him and get a biomechanical analysis done. 

Not an uncommon diagnosis. If you live in FL then see Randy Sullivan. Tell him Kyle says hello
