Hi
So sorry to hear that ….
looking at the X-ray which appears fine and doesn’t show any bony injury but the possibility of soft tissue injury(muscle and ligaments) can not be ruled out
Next Steps
Use icing and take some analgesic and rest the limb in arm pouch
With this visibility, there don't appear any fracture. Better to visit the clinic to complete evaluation of shoulder as ligament injury can be associated as well.
Thanks.
X ray looks ok, there could be soft tissue injury, ice pack application twice daily, arm pouch application for 3 weeks,can get mri done now only if patient want, if want to wait and watch can go for the same after 3 weeks
Next Steps
mri scan shoulder
Health Tips
wait for healing of soft tissue by using arm pouch and rest yo hand for 3 weeks followed by hot water fomentation and range of motion exercises thereby
