Get X-Rays?

So I was grappling with someone who weighed 80 pounds more than me locked up my left arm and fell on it. A loud crack was heard, I continued on grappling for the rest of the hour but couldn't do much with my left arm. I somewhat can move my arm but my shoulder hurts and I can't raise my arm above my shoulder. Slight pain when it's not moving.

Get X-Rays?
Sounds like you may have dislocated it, or might have torn one of the rotator tendons.





You should definitely have it assessed, because the longer you wait, the more damage is done.





The inability to raise it above your shoulder indicates that it might be a rotator cuff tear. Get help before things get worse.
Reply:YEAH DEFINITELY GET X-RAYS IT COULD BE SERIOUS
Reply:Yes. Probably, anyway. Could be something dislocated. Call your doc--they probably will say to get x-rays. And quit "grappling."
Reply:Sounds gay to me. Why is your name Dman?
