need advice

Posted , 6 users are following.

2 weeks I was slammed into lockers by 2 girls fighting in the hallway. Each day my left arm feels worse.  I am seeing an orthopedic Dr. on Monday.  Did not think it was PMR since it is not on both sides. Also have pain in my neck when i reach for cetain things.  Do you think this is a separate from PMR? All I can say is thankfully the lockers were there or I would have fallen and for broken bones. Thanks for you words of wisdom.

    Hopefully the girls were suspended for a few days....or maybe you should bring a lawsuit against their parents to wake them up !!!

      They ran do not know who they are. I am a substitute teacher so do not know all the kids. Not like a saw who it was, just totally blindsided. I did file a report.

      Happened to me 25years ago while teaching middle school..I should have filed a report and had the kid arrested...since then he has escalated to  criminal offences......they only get worse if they are not held accountable...

    Hiya hun sorry you were caught up in that. Could it be whiplash ? Movements in the way you went into the locker can bring it on and it does tend to progress if untreated over hours and days so could explain the worsening. Hope you feel better soon may be try ice or heat packs whichever work for you. x

    No, less PMR - it sounds far more like an injury, as Claire says, possibly whiplash, though I'm surprised the PMR hasn't flared too. Did you not get sent to the ER at the time - since I'm assuming this was an injury at work?
