Pope Francis has fallen and hurt his right arm. It's the second time in a month that Francis has injured himself after an apparent fall resulted in a bad bruise on his chin. The Vatican spokesman said in a statement Thursday that the pope didn’t break his arm but that a sling was put on as a precaution. Francis whacked his chin on his nightstand on Dec. 7 in an apparent fall that resulted in a bad bruise. The 88-year-old pope has battled health problems and often has to use a wheelchair.
