Pulled muscle/ligament damage?

[skeggysteve]

I think I may have done the above but how do I know?

More importantly how do I fix it? !

I was kneeling down turned and fell, tried to stop myself falling and twisted my arm.
My upper arm (the bit between my shoulder and elbow) hurt....a lot!
This was about 2pm this afternoon.
I've taken some pain killers and had a couple of hours of sleep but am back awake now.

I know I could ring NHS direct but they may just say go down to you local A & E - not something I am keen on doing!

So anyone got any other ideas?
