I fell my my right elbow. My whole arm, including my fingers feel stiff but I can bend slowly but it hurts really bad. Can it just be a bruise? But why is my arm stiff? Do I NEED to go to the emergeny room? Like i said, i could bend a little ... so what can be the problem?

There is a big bump near my elbow. Could it be no big deal because when people hit their head, they get a bump but don't go to the doctor. Do I need to get it wrapped?

I would go to the ER you may have a fracture or even just a crack, best let them take X-Rays and see, make sure whoevers house it was, they now the names etc for the household insurance, the ER will want to know.

I snapped each bones in each forearms in a filth motorcycle crash approximately 10 years in the past. My motorcycle bogged out at the bounce, so it did not propel me all of the method to the touchdown ramp. Nose-wheel hit the again of the touchdown ramp, so I went from 30mph to 0mph in zero toes. I braced for affect by way of clutching the grips tight, which eventually was once what made my palms snap. Left hand touched my left elbow at one factor (which I'm oddly happy with). Right forearm was once at a ninety measure attitude. Looked like i had 2 elbows. Still offers me the heebie geebies considering it lol

Why go to an emergency room ? Most of us here are doctors and we can exam your injury right here on the internet . We can even use your web cam for the xrays !

It all depends, your arm could be brusied, like inside, or you could have broken it. Go to the ER just incase

it could be a regular fracture or a hair line fracture you should really go to the hospital before it gets worse.
good luck.

Even if it isn't broken, you seem to have injured it very badly - go to the emergency room.
