Suggest Remedy For Pain In Arm After Injury To Shoulder
I fell on hard onto my shoulder skiing and it now hurts to move my arm, especially to raise it. it hurt when I fell. If I leave my arm folded by waist, much less pain. Should I travel home and go to doctor or do something now. I took Advil, although have not noticed less pain.
