hey Doolio. I hope you get better soon.
I am with smrr, I think it might be best to rest your arm, tho if it's ok to draw for 30 mins a day go ahead! usually when I don't have too much time to draw I do studies from life, I find they always help me improve the imagination drawings, or analyze the paintings you like helps too.
I wish I could help with advice on the social media thing, but I honestly have no idea about it :/
it is a mystery to me ,
so I just focus on my own paintings , tho I find that in my tumblr and my deviantart it's usually the fanarts that get more activity.
On DA I started getting activity once I started posting the fanarts to groups.
Twitter is fun and I have seen many Japanese artists that use that site regularly to post their work but I don't know how to go about creating a following there.
Wish I could help out on your facebook too but I don't have a fb account (so no idea how it really works ^^u) , but I know that a lot of artists have their own facebook so maybe it is a good thing that you have one.
I think your idea about discussing anime tropes is interesting, so I'd say go for it if it's something you really want to do
