Could I have damaged the nerve?!


Question: Could I have damaged the nerve!?
Hey, I took a little fall off a horse the other day (we were jumping a course and the horse refused one of the heavier fences, and I fell through the jump, taking two of the poles down with me), and was sore with a lot of bruising under the skin, but otherwise fine!. However, my trainer seemed to think it was a worse fall than I did!. I wasn't worried, but I noticed that when I extended my arm, the nerve would get a bit tingly (the ulnar nerve it feels like!.!.!.funny bone!?)!. And the same happens when I just rest my head on my elbows!.

Anyway, I was wondering if I should be worried or not, because there is a pretty ugly bruise visible just above my elbow, so I was thinking maybe the area just got a little sensitive and will settle down after the bruise is gone!. Should I be worried!? Or should I just wait and see if it returns to normal after the bruise is gone!?

It's nothing major, just a slight tingle, enough to annoy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
