Question:

The other day I tripped when I was cleaning my pool and I landed, hard, on my right arm towards the shoulder.?

Ever since then my arm hurts whenever I move my upper arm and when I try to lift it to the side. I don't want to be too concerned about it but I'm wondering if I maybe tore my rotator cuff. It is also sore when I touch the area where my arm meets my shoulder. When I tripped I landed on the concrete pool deck. There is no bruise on my arm. That's what is making me wonder if it's a rotator cuff injury.


Answers:

It's possible. Try icing it and see a doctor, especially if it doesn't clear up in the next couple of days. If you don't see a doctor, it may heal incorrectly and hurt forever.
