    You can do this with phpMyAdmin - just go to your database in phpMyAdmin, click Import, and in the file select field, choose the file you want to import.

    You'll have to download the file to your local computer first to be able to do this.

    or from the command line if you have shell access type "mysql -p < somesql.sql", obviously replace soemsql.sql with a file containing the contents of the mysql dump

    if your web host has cPanel, then there is similar funcitonality provided by phpMyAdmin
