Thanks, bhuzzers just rak! I called my doctor and not surprisingly, he wants me to get it x-rayed TODAY to assess what's going on. Apparently, just because I can manage to "walk" on it doesn't mean there isn't a fracture and then treatment depends on exactly what kind of fracture. At least the skin isn't broken, but there is a peculiar looking crescent shaped bruise right on the lower left side of tibia and the whole area is very red. Even with icing for half an hour, the area is very very tender. Not going to risk having it heal wrong so, I'm leaving work early and getting it x-rayed.
So we'll see - I was just hoping it would feel much better after a couple of hours with elevation, ice and rest, but it is not, and besides that, the whole leg, knee and hip on that same side are well, not happy campers.
Waaaaaaaaaaa!
