Restart after injury in junior football

During a few of my games 9v9 games, I've had to stop the game mid play to deal with an injury or a player hurt etc. The team in possession are sometimes unhappy with this as they may have a promising attack etc. but player safety comes first. What is the correct way to restart play after the player is dealt with? I have given an uncontested drop ball on a couple of occasions but should I have the team who were not in possession at the time kick the ball back to them ?

Always an uncontested dropped ball to the team who had possession, unless ball is in penalty area. If it is, its a dropped ball to the goalkeeper, regardless of who had possession
