I never pulled out my shoulders but I have bitten me tongue 👅 so many times, I have lost count. When I look at my tongue in the mirror , it looks like someone was trying to cut and carve it.

Slurred speech is a doozy,with the tongue biting, it feels likethe whole mouth is swollen. You don't think nothing of it until you speak. Tongue twisted, mis pronouncing your words. Pretty embarrassing at unexpected times. 😄

I’m surprised I can still talk. My tongue has been through the ringer. Never pulled my shoulder but I’ve hurt myself in all sorts of ways.😝

I have bitten my tongue during a seizure. I have never dislocated my shoulder before.
