Arm problems

About a month ago I had a paticulary heavy gaming session, I didn't move for two days apart from going to the toilet and sleeping. My left arm started hurting very suddenly and I decided to stop. I got in the shower and afterwards as I was drying my hair my left shoulder clicked

If I fast forward to now it's still hurting and the pain seems to have spread. My shoulder spasms more easily and it hurts to do the most simpliest things. I think it's RSI but I would've thought it'd be better by now as I've barely played a game since.

Has anyone got any suggestions? Apparently the doctor won't be able to do anything but I'm at my wits end.

I've been offline for a few days. Is gaming the new euphemism for masturbation?

Unfortunately you are too far away for me to see you, so I will suggest that you see a chiropractor.

If you don't like the bone clickers, then find a McTimoney Chiropractor. They are really gentle but effective.

I did wonder how long it'd take for the wanking jokes to start

Replace the word gaming with wanking....it's for more plausible.

Anyway, I don't use my left hand for wanking.

You may well have aggravated the tendons etc. Try an ice pack on the painful areas and some Ibruprofen to counteract any swelling. I'd go see my doc if I were you and next time take regular breaks from 'gaming' ok?
