So after a huge and quite dramatic piece of pedal strike on a curb on the way home on Friday Night/Saturday Morning, that left me with a bent crank arm and a nice big bruise on my right Hip, I also have a really painful right shoulder.
So here I am on Wednesday, doing what I always do, thinking "how long do I leave it before getting yet another X-ray to see if this sharp pain is a broken collarbone or whatever".
I'd rather not waste NHS funds on a bruised shoulder, but I also don't want to loose any range of movement in my shoulder. I'm leaving it until tomorrow morning, if the lump is still there and the sharp pain accompanies it, then I'm off to Charring Cross.
Having been riding and skateboarding for as long as I can remember I go through this one a fair bit.
I just wondered if anyone else was familiar with this inner turmoil.
