Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 13, I weigh about 24kg and my medical history is good. I fell over today on some concrete and a few hours after it hurt to extend my left arm, what could be the reasons and should I have it checked out? I didn t land directly on my arm, but it took some weight.
The pain on extending the arm after an injury can be due to a soft tissue injury in the area or a bone injury. A direct examination and an X-ray are needed to find out the exact cause.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
