The Same Kind of Injury

Few hours ago I had an accident. If you were to witness it, you'd probably die laughing at how it happened. And that's probably why I won't even bother telling you how this happened. But I'll just be straight to the point...I tripped and something like a corner ( not quite sharp but sorta?) was where my right lower part of my leg landed on. That should've ripped or scraped my skin a good deal. But that didn't happen, I have a weird looking dent though. It's not an open wound but it seems like it suppose to be a scrape. Well it's a hematoma. Don't know what that is? Hematoma is when the skin is bruised & the blood inside drips to a certain spot where it is very visible. Usually from an injury. Sometimes comes with a sprain or even broken bone or slight fracture. I know I don't have a broken bone but it could be a "hairline" crack/fracture. I'm afraid of that cause that means I'll have to recover & what not.I can certainly walk fine w/ out feeling pain in my bone but it feels like skin & muscles or tendons are tight.Makes me limp sometimes. I don't wanna go see the doctor for it even though I should check & get an x-ray. Sigh, it hurts like mad crazy but I'm holding it in & bearing with the pain. I'll be taking pain-killers I guess.
I went through having Hematoma before, during the summer. Except, I beared with it & didn't get it checked or even rested myself for two months cause I wanted to go have fun. Stupid, right? I still walked like 3 miles when I knew I shouldn't due to the pain i felt that time. I know for sure now that I better rest, recover & try home remedies for this messed up leg.
