I hadn't seen this before I answered the other, so please disregard that.
Now that I read why it hurts here is my advice:
You should DEFINATELY go to the doctor.
It is quite possible you have dislocated your shoulder. It is also possible you have fractured your collarbone (clavicle.)
This is also a possible blood clot injury.
Do NOT move your arm any more than you have to. You may want to tie it up in a sling if you can.
If you haven't told your parents about it yet, you should. That way if you pass out or anything, they will know what is going on.
You MUST SEE A GOOD DOCTOR IMEDIATELY. This is not a joke.

Hey! I've broken my arm 3 times so I can relate to this question. I would go to the doctor or hospital to get an x-ray, because you might have broken, sprained, or fractured your arm. In the meantime, I wouldn't try to move it aaround a lot. It may not seem that bad, but it could get worse by moving it (try keeping it close to your body.) Also, put ice on it. It will help if there is any swelling.
Good Luck
I hope this helps

P.S. I hope your arm gets better.

go directly to the hospital. do not pass go, do not collect $200.
ok you definitally busted your arm bad. Go to the hospital and get x rays. i had a friend who really messed up his arm but didnt go to the hospital. It turned out really bad. you need to go!!@!

If you broke something, it would swell up, A REAL LOT. A broken bone needs to be set in a cast. If it is a sprain, you need to put cold then warm compresses on it, 2o minutes warm, then 20 minutes cold. Wrap it in an ace bandage and keep it immobile. It is possible that your shoulder is dislocated? It if was it would look real funny and hurt a lot. I really think that if you broke something or if you dislocated your shoulder I would think that you would be in so much pain that you would not be on the computer looking for advice, you would have gone to the hospital right after it happened. But if you are still not sure, you really should get medical attention.

definately go to the hospital annd get an x ray..the pros are the best people to go to for your arm to heal the right way..if you just leave it you can cause further damage which wont be good

you should probably go to the hospital to get it checked out. if i were you, i wouldn't go to the ER, i would get an appointment and go to the orthopedic doctor.

If I were you. I would go to the hospital to have it checked out. They can take an x-ray if needed to see if you fractured it maybe. Hope your arm gets better!
