Dislocated shoulder

Question

Dislocated shoulder

Asked for Male, 23 Years

I dislocated my shoulder 5 days ago and they put it back in, my arm is now in a sling for the next 3 weeks and im on painkillers. My question is, is it still possible to make aa trip to another city tomorrow? it's been planned for months, but it would involve a 10 hour train ride (+the journey back) and a doctor my sister spoke to said it might hinder my recovery and the shoulder might not set properly because of the train movements and such. Please advise on what to do, I'm desperately bummed about this. :(
