I am suffering from dislocation problem in the shoulder both, and it takes nearly 2 hours to get set itself. In the mean time I am experiencing severe pain which I cannot express in words. I cannot take pain killers as I am a CKD patient and my age is 43 years, so what I have to do when the joint got dislocated.

Do not attempt to pop the shoulder back in yourself. Serious damage can occur to nerves and other blood vessels if it is done incorrectly. Apply ice or cold therapy immediately. Ice can be applied for 15 minutes every hour to help with the pain and swelling. Specialist cold therapy shoulder wraps are particularly good as they apply both cold therapy and compression at the same time. If a reduction is not possible immediately, a sling may be applied to take the weight off the arm. Making a sling.
