Potential For Small Bone Fracture? Collided With Goal Post During
Potential for small bone fracture?
Collided with goal post during indoor soccer game last night. Mid-forearm took direct impact (ulna side) resulting in superficial cut with large goose-egg swelling. Cut was appropriatly cleaned and after plenty of ice, ib profin, and continious elevation of arm, swelling and discomfort have now significantly subsided to the point where a visit to the emergency room seems unecessary. Any advice in that note?
PS. Brusing has yet to set in, roughly 20 hrs later.
