Quote Adeybull="Adeybull"Wilks, we are told it was a shoulder injury. Thanks for that input...informative and interesting. You try really hard sometimes to appear like a fekkwit troll, but you fail miserably - unfortunately, most of us on here realise that you actually talk a load of sense most of the time. Sorry, but that's how it is!'"
stop it you will make me blush!
Here's a bit more fromt tinterweb:
A stinger (aka burner) is an injury to the brachial plexus (nerves in the shoulder). Usually it occurs when hit in a contact sport and the head and neck are pulled in opposite directions, stretching the plexus. It also can occur when the head is pushed towards the shoulder, compressing the plexus.
Signs and symptoms usually include pain, numbness, and / or tingling through the neck, shoulder, and arm to hand. Loss of strength (can't lift the arm) is also common. Stingers or the effects of stingers can last a few seconds to days or weeks.
