I POPPED MY ARM OUT OF PLACE!!?!


Question: I POPPED MY ARM OUT OF PLACE!!?
I was stretching and I crossed my arms and pulled my arm out a little and it popped really bad. I thought I popped it out of place so I put my thumb on the bump in my arm and I popped it again, I thought I popped it back in place. It still hurts really bad though, on a scale of pain from 1-10 Id say about 2-3. Im 12, my parents said im fine kids my age do it all the time. But im scared. Am I going to be okay? Please dont answer if your answer is going to be like YOUR GOING TO DIE or something Thank you.

Answers:

You'll be fine. Just rest and no u won't die. Just ice and heat it.

Happens to me all the time and I'm still living haha.



It's in pain because the muscles are tight and pulling on the area. Something that is already in a tightened state should not be iced, it will try to make it tighter to give you more pain, once the feeling returns to the area, or it will help keep it in that tightened state longer. Heat would be much better for that.
