Please help! Shoulder pain is killing me!?!


Question: Well, I have a habit of holding onto the bar that keeps the swing set down when I'm on a swing. Last night I was holding on to one of those, and for some unknown reason I decided to go back, swing high, and grab on to the bar when I came back down. The result of that idea wasn't so beautiful. The swing wanted to go back, I was holding onto the bar, and the impact on my shoulder was brutal. I screamed bloody murder and scared half the people around me. Stupid, I know.

But anyways, that was yesterday, and my shoulder is in the worst pain now! I can only move my arm a few inches up before yelping with pain. I can't put any pressure on it, and I can't really move it around at all. What could I have done to it? And, are there any remedies I can use? Please help!!!

Go see a physical therapist and have them check em out. the sooner the better. i say put some ice on it, so it doesn't swell up.

hahhahaha i used to do the same thing as you. and got ghurt like u. i told my parents then took me to doctor and he did some cool stuff to it and it was all better. if i didnt go to doctor i culd have been hurt beyond repair


go to doctor !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah I would probably go to a doctor or wait a few days because once I fell off a tube thing and i hurt my shoulder really bad but i never went to the docter and it took forever to go away like a couple months

Make an appointment to see the doctor as soon as possible or vist the ER, or an Urgent Care facility, so x-rays can be taken. For now, apply heat for ten minutes, then apply an icepack for ten minutes, then switch back to the heat again. You may find more relief with an icebag.

Ice it for now. Use a sling for support. You may have torn some ligaments there. See a doctor asap.

go to your doctor! if it hurts that badly. Take something for pain, apply ice to the area. Do not apply heat to an acute injury it will only increase the inflammation.

advil.
icy hot.
and dont do that stuff anymore lol.
