Default RE: Buddy's Tail

I am pretty sure it isn't droopy tail. We didn't work him very long... he yelped on the 2nd retrieve and we quit. His tail is very point-tender when palpated, and has a ridge of swollen tissue. There are no signs of any abrasions or disruption in the tissue, so I also assume that he didn't cut it or get bit by something. He tries to raise it up, and often jumps in pain, then lowers it back down. He also won't sit on it... just lays down. The vet was the one that suggested it was broken, and that there wasn't much we could do. I was hoping someone else had been in a similar position and had some suggestions.
