Dislocated Shoulder
Take Action
Immediate Action: If a dislocation is suspected, gently place the arm in the most comfortable position across the chest. If this is not possible, use medical tape or bandages to secure the arm gently to the side of the body. Do not try to force the bones back into place, as this will often worsen the condition. Seek a doctor or emergency room immediately.
