I am 14, and over 2 weeks ago, i got hit with baseball cleats and had to get stitches on my upper arm. On my lower arm, I had a very large welt around my elbow and a smaller one around my wrist. The large welt on my elbow's swelling has gone down considerably, and is barely noticable, but is VERY tender to touch it (I've had bone bruises before; this doesn't feel like one). The smaller welt on my wrist area is still about 2/3 the size it was right after the incident, but is not as tender; it feels like a regular bruise, except the swelling has not gone down at all over the last 5-7 days. My question is, should I get an X-ray, and if so, what would they do for it, because I am trying out for the bowling team tues., weds., thurs., and sat, and I don't want anything to get in the way of my tryouts. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.
