Broken or not

[Sarah_eats_snow]

Ok i now this might be stupid but i went off this jump today and fell my arm felt like it was going to fall off, but then it felt a little better so i kept skiing. Now it hurts to move it up and down. Just curios, how do u know if its a bruise or a fracture. Cause my friend broke her leg without even knowing until she got it checked

can you roll your arm from left to right without it hurting?

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

no it hurts...i feels like the bones movin...its the upper arm below the sholder

 

[sKILOve07]

i think you should go get it checked out, you can never be too sure

 

[Snowcase]

total pinkness awesome and yea get it checked

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

then i get a cast and can't ski anymore thats somthing to worry about lol

 

[sKILOve07]

but taking the chance of really screwing is worse and staying in pain

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

hmm i guess

 

[chapz]

it might have been dislocated and now its not in right and thats why it hurts

 

[casualfiasco]

I've been skiing with a cast on many many times. Doing it at the current moment actually.

when i broke my wrist i couldnt twist it, and they knew it was broken after that. id definatley get it checked oout, its better to out with a cast on than stayin in and fukin it up even more so ur in a cast longer later.

 

[snowmuncher]

did this happen today sarah?

 

[SteezePatrol]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

yep it did it was soo funny..kinda hurt but was hilouris

 

[D_Mezz]

i believe that you may have a slight hairline fracture in the upper dorsamus part of you lower ignormus part of your arm.

 

[Peetri]

ya u can ride with a cast. ull be alright.

 

[Leckett]

i think its dislocated personaly

 

[VTskier3]

get it checked out. i recently found out my fibula is broken a month after i actually broke it. suuuuucks. i tried to ski on it...and really fucked things up

 

[CooksCorner]

grrrreeeaatttt.

go get it checked! the injury wont magically go away if you ignore it. Take it from someone who has broken 14 bones, the damage a broken bone can do to muscle and nerve is not worth being tough. better safe than sorry, go get it checked.

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

thanks everyone...but wat if its not to swollen?..still might be broken?

 

[Sarah_eats_snow]

You have really cleared it up for me...honestly...lol

if you have a tuning fork, or something you can make vibrate, touching a vibrating thing to an area that has a break/fracture will be very painful vs. not painfull if there is no break/fracture, do it to both arms to compaire

 

[Leckett]

ouch...fibula is a pretty big bone too

def get it checked out. my bro broke is arm once and they didn't see it on the xray even, and then he broke it 2 months later and they could see the old break, and they had to put him under to break it again in order to put it into place.

 

[JoakimHayland]

just get it xrayed
