While I was shaking it felt strange, but then I remembered it's a textbook healing/normalizing response to trauma. So yay shaking!
That's interesting about the helmet. I'm fairly sure it didn't hit the pavement, although I haven't inspected it closely yet. I'll take it to the store where I bought it and ask them about replacing it.
It's interesting to notice how much calmer I am in responses to bruises, where I know how it will heal. Gives me more understanding of little kids' wails when they fall - they don't have experience yet of getting to feeling better.
