How To Treat Bruise And Pain Due To Injury?
I bumped my right upper arm on a cabinet. There is no bruise on the outside, but it feels like there is somthing going on inside? Can a bruise go in, instead of out? It has been two weeks and feels like it is getting worse. Extreme Pain when I raise my arm over level of heart or move side to side or try to lift something? It feels fine otherwise? Extremely painful when moving and lifting and when I lay down at night on that arm?
