What can be done?
Sounds like what happened to mine, sticks drifting out seems to be a common issue
If you're in warranty, send it to Nintendo for repair (
https://nintendoservicecentre.co.uk/). You can also send it there out of warranty, like I did with both my joy cons, but they wanted to charge me £29 per joy con so I had them sent back. When I got them back, they seemed to have been fixed anyway, but that fix didn't last long as after a weekend of playing one of the sticks started drifting again.
I bought replacement joy cons second hand and they are fine at the moment. My advice is to sell the joy con and buy a replacement
