Health Remedies - Bone Dislocation
Joint dislocation occurs when bones in a joint become displaced or misaligned. Dislocations may occur in major joints of shoulder, hip, knee, elbow and ankle or in the smaller joints in the fingers, thumbs and toes. It is often caused by a sudden impact or trauma to the joint, such as a fall or a hard blow. A dislocated joint may be visibly out-of-place, discolored, or misshapen. Other symptoms are swelling and bruising of joint, limited movement, and highly painful joint. Joint dislocation seeks immediate medical care. Delay in treatment of a dislocation can affect blood supply, ligaments, bone and joint structures, sometimes resulting in permanent disability.
