Possible muscle contusion

[828Pax]

I had quite a bad fall down the stairs on Monday, I'm talking top to bottom, head first.The doctors were most concerned with my head injury and am still suffering from concussion now however the most pain I felt was actually my leg. The whole front of the bottom of my leg is badly bruised and so so painful if something knocks it! However upon inspecting it after daring to touch it, I have discovered that most of it is actually numb on the surface. There's a weird pain inside when I walk which almost feels like something is shattered inside, although not the bone as it's not a deep pain and I can obviously walk ok. Could this be damaged muscle? I will call the doctors Monday first thing, not sure if it warrants a visit to minor injuries over the weekend or if numbness can be normal after a heavy fall?

You might have broken your leg, or damaged your nerves. It might also be related to your head injury that your pain sensation is weird/different at the moment.
I would be contacting the out of hours GP service today about it. They might send you to minor injuries or whatever service you have in your area that can do x-rays.

@Justkeepingplatesspinning Thank you! I was worrying that I was being over dramatic by going to the minor injuries, i'll contact out of hours GP today.
