A dislocation occurs when 2 bones are out of place of the joint that connets them. Dislocation may also cause injury to nerves and blood vessels. Joits that become dislocated and later heal are more likely to become dislocated again.
Types of Dislocation includes.
1. Shoulder dislocation :- The shoulder joint is the most frequently dislocated major joint of the body. In a typical case of a dislocated shoulder, a strong force that pulls the shoulder outward (abduction) or extreme rotation of the joint pops the ball of the humerus out of the shoulder socket. Dislocation commonly occurs when there is a backward pull on the arm that either catches the muscles unprepared to resist or overwhelms the muscles.
2. Hip dislocation : It occurs when the head of the thighbone (femur) is forced out of tis socket in the hip bone (pelvis). It typically takes a major force to dislocate the hip. Car collisions and falls from significant height are common causes and as a result, other injuries like broken bones often occur with the dislocation.
