Yesterday, I was doing some yard work. A week back, we bought some bushes and a tree for our never-ending backyard renovation. I had planted one bush and had to move some stuff around to make room for another bush planting.
That's when it happened.
As I picked up the sheet of plywood, my straightened right arm went "POP" at the elbow. Searing pain shot up and down my right arm. Not sure what the injury is…of course, I finished the job virtually one-handed, took some pain meds, and iced it several times before going to sleep last night.
This morning, I am in quite a lot of pain. There is a little constant pain, and when I bend my arm with my palm up, there is more (but manageable) pain. However, when I try to straighten (or bend) my arm with my palm down, oh boy, the pain is off the chart.
Off to the doctor I go! I'll try to figure out how in between dropping off the oldest boy at school, attending class with my youngest, and then talking with the tax guy at lunch time…I might get to the doctor this afternoon.
Darn it all. I really didn't need this!
