I feel stupid for posting this. I've broken my right arm distal ulna once. Severely. It was a compound fracture requiring surgery (I was 6). When I was 13 I broke my left arm (distal) and while I was getting my arm x-rayed they discovered a previous fracture on my left arm, more proximal than the one at the time, that apparently I had never noticed.
Two days ago I noticed a lump and pain on my left arm, towards the middle. I don't know where I hit it, or anything, but I assume it must have been on the bus I take in the mornings or something (I ride a crowded University bus). But now it's all black and blue and when i move my wrist or elbow it feels like there is a... pulling right there. And then my arm aches and radiates down into my hand.
Is it possible my arm is broken? I question my judgement since apparently I didn't notice once before. When I broke my arms last time it was near the wrist and it swelled and changed how I could move the wrist, so I noticed right away.
Help?
