This is an A&E trip right?

[Ostryga]

Tripped over dd’s scooter in the garden and fell with all my weight on my leg. It’s not broken as can weight-bear (with pain!) but my god it’s so bloody sore. Bruises came up very quickly.

That is some impressive bruising OP, hope you're ok!

No update yet, still waiting in minors. Think I’m going to be a while!

Ooooo ouch!!! Hope it’s not too painful OP!

You poor thing. Keep an eye on the colour of your toes. If they go white or blue, or if you start to loose sensation in any of them or get strange pricking feelings - let the triage people know immediately.

Hope you're seen soon, OP.

I'm willing to bet you the half a bottle of quite decent red that I've got in my kitchen that you leave with a plaster cast.

Glad you are getting it checked out.

Hope you are not in pain.

Quite refreshing to have one of these threads without having someone telling OP not to waste A&E's time unless her leg is virtually severed.

Ouch. The only time I had bruising like that, I'd torn a ligament. It took a day for it to fully appear, too.

Get some arnica on those bruises

I e had a blood test and should be getting a wheelchair to X-ray soon. So fingers crossed I can get home soon and my leg isn’t going to drop off.

Wow that’s nasty! Did it come up quickly like that?

You poor thing. Hope you took a good book!

Wow, biggest bruise I have ever seen. Let us know how you get on at the hospital.

How quick did it come up that colour? It’s amazing really.

Yikes! Hope it's not broken!

I would guess it’s definitely broken, maybe even twice. I have no medical training or X-ray vision though!
It’s so bruised!!!

Ouch! That looks really sore

Bloody hell, that looks ouchy as fuck!! Glad you're getting it looked at!

Blimey, that looks painful. I hope it goes okay at the hospital!

Looks very sore!

I like your cushions

Wow that's some mad bruising!! I thought I bruised easily! Hope you go on ok OP

That looks really painful - hope you get x-rayed soon!

Lots of ice, elevation and painkillers. xx
