A dislocation occurs when two bones that come together in a joint come out of their normal positions. Symptoms of a dislocation include severe pain, immobilization, and deformity of the joint area. Dislocations can occur to nearly any joint of the body, including the shoulders, elbows, knees, hips and ankles; they are also seen in the smaller joints of the fingers and toes. Dislocations are considered urgent situations that require medical care, but you can learn how to treat a dislocation until the patient can receive professional medical help.
