If u have a hurt shoulder and u still go swimming if u stay in the shallow part?

Question

my friends want me to go swimming with them but i have a hurt shoulder and i don't know if it will be ok even if i stay in the shallow water to were i don't have to swim. could it still put me in pain?

Answer 1

it should be fine if you stay in the shallow water.

the water actually has some bouyancy and will help support your arm.  it actually might feel better.

another point:  if by hurt you mean you have a large cut on your upper arm, well, water will cause problems with that.

Answer 2

waters normally good for injuries...........
