hurt arm

Imagine a 34 year old mom of 5 boys riding a bike for the first time in about 10 years. This mom then gets a flip flop stuck under the peddle of of her bike and gracefully rolls off her bike onto the concrete. Imagine then, that her family starts laughing hysterically at her and she in turn joins in with them because it is truly funny! Fast forward one day and the same mom ends up in the insta care getting x rays of her arm because it hurts like "no other" and it is swelling up. The slightly homosexual Doctor proceeds to tell her that he thinks it is just a torn ligament and that it is not broken. The mom's dear, sweet but slightly prejudice husband thinks that the DR is a nut case and should not have made any judgements until the x ray comes back. The husband takes the mom home and rigs up an arm brace and sends her to bed to rest. Fast forward to today and the mom's Mother thinks that she should go to the "real" Doctor and see what he says. Mom and child #4 go to the said Dr and he looks at the x rays and proceeds to tell the mom that he trusts the radiologist judgment and the arm is probably not broken but it is to early to x ray the arm again to see if a break shows up. The wonderful "family" DR sends her home with a prescription, arm brace and an appt later on in the week for an x ray if her mother and husband think that it is necessary:) All in all the arm is feeling better each day and the pain has subsided due to the meds. The swelling has gone down and the brace has done a world of good.
