Mother Of All Whore Threads Non-VIP Edition v.1

So I had this great idea when I was MTB tonight. Ride past this jump thinking. Hey I could probably do that. So I went back up a bit and attempted the jump. But it turns out I can't do it and I went over my handlebars and landed on my shoulder. It hurts a lot but I'm 70% sure I didn't break any bones. Collar bone is a bit swollen but doesn't hurt when I touch it. Shoulder is done though.

Sometimes you gotta remember that you're not in your 20s any more.
 
My doctor friend suspects a torn rotator cuff.
There are YouTube vids or exercises to test if your rotator cuff is torn. Some require a second person to provide resistance or pressure, but it could confirm it. When I broke my collarbone you could feel bone grinding/clicking when trying to move that shoulder. If you broke it, I’d think you’d have it popping and grinding.
 
i did some shoulder resistance band training after a fall caused a tear, seems to have healed up without needing surgery
