My arm hurts, stairgate fell on it!

DH decided it was a good idea to hang a surplus stairgate up in the conservatory to put clothes on to dry. This was fine till I shut the door this afternoon and it fell onto my fore arm.
I can still move it, can't see any bruising but can feel a bit of a lump and it hurts to rest it on the arm of the chair etc.
Go on tell me how silly I am!

Agree, put ice on it and if you have some arnica tablets and/or arnica cream, to reduce the bruising

it happened a 2 hrs ago, maybe too late for ice, need to get ds1 in the bath, keep ds2 quiet and wait for mil to babysit so I can take our dog to traing classes!
