Subluxation Vs. Dislocation Subluxation A subluxation occurs when the joint only comes out of place partially and goes back into place. Usually this relocation will happen naturally right after the trauma or the injured individual can move the affected area to move it back into place. This is less traumatic and lower in severity than a dislocation. Dislocation A dislocation happens when ball portion of the joint comes out completely from its socket. This type of injury usually requires medical attention to get the joint back into the proper place. This is more severe, more painful and requires more treatment than a subluxation.
