A member asked:
My son fell at hockey last night. he describes the pain in his arm as burning. could it be broken?

Possible!: But the decription is not typical. If he has pain with movement or the arm, more liekly. If the "burning" pain is less dendent on motion, much less likely. A simple x-ray can r/o a fracture. Hockey is one of the most traumatic sporting activities!
