Redeem Yourself as a Doctor by Reducing a Shoulder Dislocation

I remember when we were playing frisbee and a guy dislocated his shoulder, and we all looked at the 4th years, but they refused to do anything b/c of fear of damaging nerves.  Well, in reality, that's unlikely (per ortho attending).  So, even though I'm going into peds and not ortho, hopefully someday, I can redeem myself for not knowing what to do that day and show that those thousands of dollars in debt for medical school wasn't put to waste: Reducing an Anteriorly Dislocated Shoulder.

And while we're at it, why not also reduce a posteriorly dislocated hip? (Anesthesia please)
