Not sure where to post this, but last week dh woke up and had a sore shoulder - his arm started shaking when he lifted it to a certain point but it wasn't overly painful, more just like a dead weight. It was fine after a day or two.
This weekend he has been crippled with the pain. He can't sleep - at all, he can't move it and he's in agony. He said the pain is like he has broken it but he can't see how that would have happened. He has not slept at all tonight and is down on the couch, propped up and watching tv in the hope he will fall asleep. I offered to take him to a&e as he's in so much pain but he said probably best to take him to the minor injuries unit in the morning - does that seem like the right course of action? I feel so bad for him that I'm up in bed and he's down on the couch whimpering with the pain.
He's used the ibuprofen gel and taking some paracetamol. We don't have anything stronger in the house and he's asthmatic so needs to watch what he takes. He won't let me sit with him as I'm in early stages of pregnancy and wants me to get to bed and sleep.
Any advice?
