A member asked:
4 weeks ago i bruised my arm.the bruise is gone but my arm still hurts even if i dont touch it. i think its a bit swollen too. should i be concerned?

Arm swelling: If there is definite swelling of the arm there is concern enough to have a physician examine you. If there is no swelling,or redness, the discomfort could be from a muscle contusion, but a microfracture of a bone is another possibility. It's best to be examined. An xray may be recommended.
