Admittedly, I've heard of dislocated shoulders but it never occurred to me you could _separate_ a shoulder.

A "shoulder" is not really just one joint, but more of a system.
A dislocation is when the humerus comes out of its socket.
A separation is typically when the far end of the clavicle is torn from its attachment to the scapula.
2 different joints . . .
