What about an ac joint dislocation?

[@TheClimbingDoctor]

There are 6 grades of AC joint separations. A dislocation is another word for separation. In order to determine the grade of injury, you can have a medical provider perform imaging. The degree discussed in the video is a grade 3 which is a complete tear of the acromioclavicular ligament.
