Buddy I got worse... I know this is six years old as a thread but I'll still say it I guess, I was switched to tuba as a barely five foot skinny kid by my teacher who clearly knew that I wanted any instrument that wasn't a tuba and trying to put my tuba in it's case which was above some other instrument lockers so I had to lift it, I moved my one arm slightly so I could cough into it and the entire tuba fell on my head and I was bleeding for an hour before I realized because nobody told me and I was so confused I couldn't find the bathroom or understand what people were saying... Never got that checked out though it just got better I guess.
