Dr. Michael Murray, MD's Expert Contributions
I have pain from a fractured shoulder humerus bone?
Yes, using stronger pain medication could risk dependency and increase your risk of falling on an already injured shoulder. If you adjust the sling and maybe a pillow between your body and arm, it will stop the movement of the bone fragments, which is the cause of the pain. At about 4 weeks after injury, the pain should be a lot less as a cartilage bridge between fragments will form and the movement of fragments will be less. READ MORE
