[|Human|] my 16 year old son fell on his shoulder playing a game at school and an hour later had pain from his shoulder blade over the shoulder joint and up his neck.he is in quite a bit of pain. finds it hard to do anything with the left arm as it hurts to much. our family doctor doesnt think its to serious but we think it is.
[|AI|]  Hello, I agree with your family Physician that it is not a major injury but just that he has hurt the muscle.  In case the pain does not come down in 3-4 days of the time you can take up the x-ray of the shoulder and cervical spine to get rid of the doubt you are having. Usually, when the fall occurs there will be a direct impact over the muscular system which can lead to Inflammation of the muscle fibers and pain. This is common in falls in kids. Also doing a hot water fermentation over the painful area should help reduce pain. Rest assured, your son do not have a major injury. Also, the kids complain more often to the extensive level where parents get panic, but it will be only a minor muscle pain which kid cannot bear it. Hope you will not take much worry and tension and its assured that the kid will be fine in 2-3 days of time. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Jay In Chat Doctor.
