What Is The Treatment Of Lump If Hurt Arms ?
Hi there! I just hurt my arm (about an hour ago, 6am) by knocking it on the wall in shear frustration (not the brightest thing to do!!) and now I'm left with a nasty bump (it is just below my wrist, towards my elbow) and I have pain and pins and needles and its sore to touch and I'm scared that I might have a break or a hairline fracture - it is very sore! On the scale of 1-10 the pain is about 5 and it's getting worse. Any advice? Is it worth getting checked out?

.Hi. Of course yes.
You have to get an X-ray done to see if there is any fracture or not as the treatment will be totally different. Pins and needles are due to crushed nerves and will settle with time.
Be careful when you have an attack of frustration. Do not break bones.
