Answer:

a closed reduction procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

The procedure basically takes about 30 minutes. The doctor administer anaesthesia to the patient to reduce pain. The dislocated bone is pulled to its normal position.

Physical therapy is recommended by the doctor after healing to prevent inflammation that may occur around the soft tissue region that had been injured.
