    erm you'd need to give more details than that. Could be anything from a simple bruise to a broken bone :p

    If a doctor couldnt help i dont hold out much hope for you here.

    Consult a physiotherapist!

    seriously, what kind of answer are you expecting from a post with as little information as that!

    Impending heart attack.

    Phone the morgue and tell them you're ready.

    So, the qualified healthcare professional with years of study behind him/her didn't know what to do about it, and you're going to take advice from people on an internet message board? :rolleyes:

    did you get any amputations lately :dunno:

    Obviously you and you arm have come to crossroads. It seems you have irreconcilable differences. Clearly it is time for you to part from your arm.

    I recommend a very tight torniquet, about 4 inches from the top of your arm, a large bath full of ice and water and a jigsaw. The quicker you and your arm leave eachother, the less painful it will be.

    cut off your other arm. you won't notice the pain in the left so much then.

    My guess would be that you have Parkinson's Disease or perhaps Motor Neuron Disease....

    For more bad advice, check this site out...

    Seriously though you should go for a second opinion if it is really bothering you.

    COuld be a nerve pinched or something. See a physio, or a another doctor.

    Walk it off.

    "Doctor, my arm hurts when I do this"

    "Then don't do that"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,513 ✭✭✭Sleipnir


    There isn't a knife stuck in it is there?
    Take a look.

    I dont want to alarm you, but there may be a boogieman trying to make off with left arm! just remain calm, and turn around very slowly...

    Actually, the best protection from limb-snatching boogeymen is throwing salt all around you, in a circle, and never leaving it. Severing your limbs can also help, but can be a bit counter-productive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,004 ✭✭✭Big Ears


    U might want to put salt in your eyes too , so the Boogymen or boogyman went take them .

    You probably only have one day left to live but the doctor didn't want to worry you.
    Anyway, don't worry about it.

    the finger you're poking it with is broken
