hello,

yesterday i was playing hockey and was slammed hard into the boards, my forearm hot sandwhiched between the boards and my body and i felt a sharp pain.

it was very red and sore for about an hour after but i thought it was probably just a bruise.

however today it hasnt bruised and its bot swollen but it does still hurt a bit and if i run my fingure down my arm i can feel part of the "bone" is raised and theres a large bump.

could this be broke or cracked?
