Dislocations are very straightforward. Something (usually a joint) is not located where it should be. Seems easy enough right? Wrong! Sometimes, if you have listened to all of the criteria and disclaimers and made informed decisions and it's a simple dislocation you can just replace the joint back to where it belongs, but sometimes you can't do that. Learn what all of those criteria and disclaimers are and how to make those informed decisions. Also we will cover when you will need to make those decisions and when you have the luxury to splint it as it is and evacuate to a doctor (always option #1 really).
