How do you reset a dislocated shoulder without seeing a doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's not recommended: While some patients are able to easily put their shoulders back in without much effort, you should not do it yourself if it just doesn't "pop back in". It is a medical procedure with potential complications best performed by someone who has trained to avoid those complications.
