I have studied your case. Hill sach injury is bony defect and you may need investigation and arthroscopy
You may need arthroscopic repair for bony bankart lesion.
You may consult physiotherapist for further guidance. He may start TENS ,or ultrasound which is helpful in your case. You may need to take rest for early healing. After correction usually recovery occurs in 4 to 6 months.
