I assume he dragged it with the arm that's on the other side from the injury. How would you do it?

Lifting something over your head is a totally different ballgame then dragging it behind your when it's on wheels

I agree with others here, not the job of the FAs to place carry on in the over head bin. You brought it, you lift it. Unless there is a helpful fellow pax that offers help. Obviously not talking about someone who has an obvious disability, pre-boarders.
Disabilities need not be permanent. An injury that temporarily prevents you from doing something is a temporary disability
