Welcome to my channel Power of knowledge academy. In this video you will learn about joint dislocation.
What is a dislocation?
Dislocation is the medical term for bones in one of your joints being knocked or pushed out of their usual place.
A joint is any place in your body where two bones meet. They’re part of your skeletal system. You have hundreds of joints throughout your body. They support your body from head to toe.
The most common locations for a dislocation are shoulders and fingers, but can also occur in elbows, knees and hips. The cause is often a fall or a blow, sometimes from playing a contact sport.
Dislocations can be painful and make it hard (or impossible) to use your affected joint. Dislocations can also strain or tear the tissues around your joints, including your:
• Muscles.
• Nerves.
• Tendons.
• Blood vessels.
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of a dislocation include:
• Joint is visibly deformed or out of place
• Numbness or tingling at the joint
• Swollen or discolored
• Limited ability to move
• Intense pain
Types of Dislocation
• Complete dislocations (luxation): A complete dislocation happens when the bones in your joint are totally separated and pushed out of place.
• Subluxation: Subluxation is the medical term for a partial dislocation. You have a subluxation if something pulls your joint apart and the bones still touch, just not as completely as usual.
What tests are done to diagnose dislocation
• Physical examination
• X-rays.
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
• A computed tomography (CT) scan.
How are dislocations treated?
The most important treatment for a dislocation is putting your joint back in its correct place. Your healthcare provider might call this a relocation, manipulation or a closed reduction. They’ll carefully push and pull on the dislocated joint to move it back into alignment. Your provider might give you anesthesia or sedatives (medications that make you sleepy or feel less pain) before they relocate your joint. You might need X-rays before and after a relocation to check for broken bones in or around your joint.
Depending on which joint was dislocated, you might need other treatment, including:
• Immobilization: Wearing a splint, sling or brace will hold your joint in place while it heals.
• Medication: Your provider will tell you which medication you can take to reduce pain and inflammation.
• Rest: You’ll need to avoid any physical activity that uses or puts stress on your affected joint.
