I tripped three weeks ago and landed very hard on bridge surface. I have a break at the top end of my upper arm bone. The “ball” is shattered into more than four pieces. Very painful but have avoided taking the pain killers prescribed after first two days. I am wearing a neck and wrist sling. Drs strike and delayed appointments resulting in a brief consult with surgeon who recommends a clinical trial researching extensive and invasive surgery. I do not want to undergo this as I am 74 and there are no guarantees I would get back full range of movement. Bruising is extensive. Have tried comfrey soaks, DMSO with castor oil application, Epsom salts soaks and am starting with borax. All these have helped. Also vitamin D.
Don't know when will see dr so am trying to as much as I can to avoid stiffness and to reduce swelling and bruising. Any help would be much appreciated. The break is on the right - dominant arm.
tahank you.

So sorry to know about your injury and pain. I just want to share my experience when last year I got injured my left foot and had severely sprained ankle. I could barely walk with one foot and pain was so severe that I couldn't sleep at all that night although I took 4 painkillers.I just wanted to cry loudly. My apartment is upstairs and I couldn't go to hospital or Dr clinic.I have had four little kids to look after. I wanted to be well as quick as possible.What I did, fortunately I have almost all the things at home what I needed. I have MSM not DMSO.I mixed half teaspoon vitamin C Ascorbic Acid, 1 teaspoon MSM and 2 Tab spoon Aeloe Vera paste mixed them well then I added 1teaspoon glycerin in this mixture and applied generously on my foot and ankle and massaged, then I dried my foot with hair dryer 15 min to speed up recovery then applied castor oil and massaged well and wrapped in thick cotton. This same procedure I did 3,4 times a day. Internally I took turmeric 1 teaspoon with one fourth teaspoon black pepper and coconut oil 1,2 tabs, magnesium chloride flakes, Zinc orotate 30 mg, MSM 1 teaspoon, Vitamin C 1000 mg 4 times a day and bone broth.You can take any good collagen supplement too.
Can you imagine just after 2 days I could stand and walk although with pain but bearable. I was happy I could go to bathroom and stand to cook for my kids. My injury or sprain was so severe If I took medical route I would have to stay in bed at least 2 months but with the Grace of God and earth clinic, so much learnt from here, and specially hair dry dried your wound so quickly like a magic.In 2 weeks I was totally well.I hope this will help you. Best wishes and prayers for your speedy recovery.
