sorry no caps am feeding ds
fell over two days ago, was pushing pushchair down bumpy hill. wheel jammed in a rut, i tripped, and twisted my back quite badly trying to stop pushchair falling over.
my right shoulder has been getting steadily worse since then. it hurts across my collarbone, round through my armpit and into my shoulderblade. i can't sniff, sneeze, cough, take deep breaths, turn over in bed, raise my arm, and pick up ds without pain shooting through my shoulder.
i know its not broken as it didn't hit the ground, its from twisting as i fell so presumably muscular?
should i see gp or should i carry on with paracetamol/ibuprofen? could it be anything worse than twisted/sprained?

Poor you. If this was me I'd be going to the Doctor to get some better painkillers and to check that I hadn't broken my collarbone.

have just made appt with practice nurse as no doctors free today and she can prescribe apparently.

don't think it can be broken as it didn't hit the ground.
