Dislocations occur when a bone is forced out of its normal position in a joint. This can happen due to injuries, such as falls or accidents, and often results in pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the affected area. Commonly dislocated joints include the shoulder, elbow, and fingers. Treatment for dislocations typically involves a healthcare professional realigning the bone back into its proper place, a process known as reduction. After the joint is stabilized, rest and rehabilitation exercises may be recommended to restore strength and flexibility. Proper care can help prevent future dislocations and ensure a full recovery.
