Sucks that it actually did turn out to be a tear. I think we all had a hunch that it was a tear by how you were describing the hard lump in the shoutbox, that seemed to be a dead giveaway along with the bruising you got a few days later.

On a more positive look, be thankful you don't need to have surgery to get it repaired. Thats a whole nother can of worms you luckily won't have to open.

Hope you have a speedy recovery.
