I was out trail riding my KX today.  I took one spill but I don't think that did it.  I took a lot of hard hits and landings today.  I noticed my arm was hurting a bit but I sucked it up and kept riding.  By the time I got home, my arm was hurting pretty bad and it's still hurting.  I can't pick up anything even remotely heavy.  Also, on my arm about 2 or 3 inches away from my wrist where the pain is, it is swollen a little bit.  No discoloration and it's not swollen a whole lot.  Putting pressure on my hand or sudden movements hurt it.  Could I have a hairline fracture or something?  I usually have a kung fu grip on my grips as well.  Could I have just pulled a muscle?  I noticed after I had been riding for a while, I couldn't straighten my fingers out without the help of my other hand.  They had been hanging on so tight for so long.  I have health insurance but I HATE going to the hospital because it's such a huge pain in the ass.  Plus I'm in the Air Force.  Anybody else who is or has ever been in the AF knows you have to call everybody and their mom if you have to go to the hospital.  What do you guys think?  What does a fractured arm feel like?  Should I just tape it up or get a wrist brace at Wal-Mart?  Matt
