I'd go just to double check!!!

best to be safe than sorry.

you should go see a doctor to make sure nothing is wrong.

I would. did you get his insurance info? use it.

See your doc, this could eventually develop in to a serious injury later thats going to be to difficult to fix or get atlest comfort from. I to had a injury once that seemed like nothing I now have barely any cushion between my left knee cause I waited to long to see a doctor. Im on meds for pain and I stand on my feet more then 10 hrs aday at most. I really wish I had not been so stubborn and gotten help when it was possible to do something. This happend when I was 17 its 10yrs later now.....So you do the math.

There may have been a strain to the shoulders just short of a dislocation. I'd wait until I could give the examiner a more precise description. I doubt there's much he/she could do other than presc for Naproxen sodium or other pain relief.

Yeah, you should. I watched a video in class about this one lady that got in a little accident but there was so much force involved that it lacerated her spline. She didn't go to the doctor because she didn't know about it. It leaked blood for 10 days until it started gushing, causing severe internal bleeding. She almost died. I don't mean to scare you but I really think you should go see a doctor.
