I hurt my shoulder.?

So, I fell onto a carpet, onto my shoulder and now it hurts. It wasn't a serious fall or anything, but it does hurt. Will the pain go away, what is it, is it serious?

    I think you will be fine. If there is blood, wipe it off and stick on a band-aid. If it continues to bother you for more than 2-3 days, letting someone know would be good. For now, grab an ice pack. The most logical explanation is that it is bruised, but there could be a tiny sprain if it continues to hurt for more than a week. If that is the case, wrap it up in an ace-bandage and use a sling (both found at most pharmacies and walmarts) to help rest it.

    The pain might go away in a while but it may take a lot of patience. If there is a bruise then it's not that bad. If it's bleeding then wash it off and wipe it, I like to use baby wipes
