Fell off bike, can't lean on leg, bruised or should i go to doctors?

Question

i was riding my brothers bike; i wasn't used to it.

im fifteen and i dont have any health issues.

i was going down a reallllly steep hill, and i pressed the brakes for the front instead of the back wheel. i fell forward, past the bike, and landed on a brick sidewalk. [i pressed the brakes to avoid falling over something in the first place... ha]

ok so luckily my dad was passing by [phew] and stopped. i was all scratched up, but my head + face is ok. except i landed on my right side, so when i tried to stand up i couldn't lean against my right leg or it would super hurt right by my hip.

so i fixed up my scrapes and im home now. i found crutches but when i move my right leg a certain way, it hurts really bad. i have a bad bruise right on my right hip bone. i know most of you say go to the hospital, but its really hard to do so, so is it possible that maybe i just bruised my leg or something and itll go away?

Answer 1

Hospital + Xray.I hope you havent broken anything.

Answer 2

u could of just bruised it but u might of chipped a bone    i realy think u should see a doc   if u dont its gonna cause more pain when u get older.

Answer 3

Go to the doctor just to be sure

Answer 4

You should probably go in.  There might be more signifigant damage than just a break.  Just go to a doctor, hospital ER costs are really expensive even with insurance.  It's a good place to start.

Answer 5

Both, you have to get an xray of your leg to really know what happened to your leg, your story and your injury look a bit serious, the best you can do is rush to ER now! Good luck
