no SHE is not a boy.

please if you want a question answered create your own thread. its pointless to bring up old posts.

kay thanks guys. yeah there is pain when i try to touch my shoulder, but its also almost impossible to continue regardless of the pain because i think the swelling in my joint is in the way.

ill probably give it a couple days, if its not better by monday ill see a doctor.

thanks guys!

it doesnt sound broken
i mean i havent broken many bones, just one when i was younger, my wrist
from what i remember, i had trouble doing anything at all with it
i couldnt bend it fully without it hurting like he ll and it wasnt too swollen but enough to make my mom worry
when you sprain something it gets pretty swollen and if you cant touch your shoulder because of the swollenness not the pain id say its just sprained
but like you said, were not doctors
id say just try to take it easy for a couple of days until you get an x-ray
theyre fun(:
maybe you just pulled it (someone already said that lol) and it just needs time to rebound
idk lol it could be anything

ok so i play rugby, and yesterday I was at a tournament. During one of the games I hurt my arm, there was a lot going on so I can't remember exactly how it happened but as I fell (whether being tackled or tackling) my arm was kindof jammed between this other girl and me. At the time I just kind of shook it off and continued to play. After the game I tried stretching it, moving it around, and then played some more games. About 2 hours later it was still sore so I took an advil and put an ice pack on it. then i played some more. But when I got home, it really hurt so i took a hot bath, then iced it, then heated it again, and took more meds. repeat for the rest of the night. i figured some sleep would help it out, so i went to bed. This morning I woke up, and my arm is still sore. my wrist also hurts more than yesterday. I can almost fully extend my arm, i think there is some swelling in the joint so i cant actually fully extend it, and i can't touch my shoulder with my arm, my fingertips just barely brush my shoulder when I try. I broke this same arm years and years ago. But i knew it was broken immediately, this one the pain is less, but still persistent.
theres no numbness, or tingling, and i have some mobility with it, but I can't bear a ton of weight on it.

I'm so so scared that i broke it because that basically wrecks my life. I just started my rugby season at school and im doing pretty well at it this year, i just started ringette up for the season, I'm supposed to be in a dodgeball tournament this thursday with school. I don't want it to be broken but im so scared it is. I hope to god its just a sprain. but i dont know.

what do you guys think?
