My shoulder is not resting in socket where it should be can this be fixed by physo or is sugery a possibilty?

Depends on why: It depends on why. If you have injured repeatedly, physical therapy can help most of the time and should be tried before surgery. If you were born with some severe malformation, surgery might be required. Even if you get surgery, some physical training to strengthen the muscles will lead to a faster and more successful recovery.
