Swollen leg

2018-09-24 23:50:43
I fell and have a huge bruise on my shin bone. I can walk with a limp and bend my knee, but It is really swollen and hurt to walk. I think it may be fractured just wondering what I should do.

Please get an Xray done to rule out fracture and if its normal. If your xray is normal and swelling still there than ultrasound of swollen area can rule out and blood collection
