Kids in particular have a hard time with this. I had to relocate a dislocated shoulder for a 15-year-old girl who was in a lot of pain. She had dislocated her shoulder during swimming practice. She was very anxious, but she was also very anxious about us placing an IV or giving her pain medicine before we pulled on her shoulder. Her shoulder was clearly hurting. The sooner we can get it back in place, the better.</p>
