My horse zigged and I zagged, falling directly on my right shoulder, dislocating it and fracturing my upper arm too. Agonizingly painful and took 3 tries in emergency room to pop it back (hello anesthesia!) It could have been much worse, as farm owners were home to drive me, was wearing my helmet, horse ran to barn to wait for me and was OK.
If you've had this, how was your recovery? I'm seeing a good ortho dr. tomorrow and will follow his instructions to a T. Can't do any massages for the upcoming busy holiday time, and I'm limiting my horse time to treats and pats.
i'm quite bored and limited in doing anything while wearing a splint and sling. Arm is blue and a bit numb but achy.
Typing w/left hand ain't easy.
