Not always. None of my fractures were particularly painful, I've had bone bruises and sprains that felt worse. What tipped me off was feeling shivery and tired (like with a fever) and/or limited range of motion (like 5 degrees one broken elbow, 45 another).
My pain tolarance is quite high so it's hard to tell whenever I break something I need to go on visual symptoms problem is I never get the purple swelling so it's difficult
Oh fuck. Powerlifter taken out by a hydroflask, and it wasn’t even to the head😂 Jokes aside, hope you’re doing better now man. That shit had to humble even the strongest of men
Dude I think I have one too I mean I was scared it was broken but I can move it. It was a little painful im first 2 days not too much but no problems with moving it. How is your hand
I hit the floor after coming off the bike at 70km. I landed on my front like a plank but smashed my body into the ground perfectly flat on gravel and dried leaf debris and slid like a paper airplane for about 10m. I didn't get knocked out but was dizzy for a bit. It took me an hour to feel strong enough to get on a bike to be taking to my hotel.I couldn't lift my leg while sitting but that was better after 4 days. Now I have a lump on my shin and the bone feels weak each time I walk or move about. It does not hurt as it is numb. Top and bottom as at the top on my thigh I got a stab and scrape to end all scrapes. It needed stitches according to the Cambodian pharmacist but I used some glue and placenta cream. My forearm was stripped but I pushed that back on as I would of lost my tat. I took 5 days of anti bi as pharmacist said it was infected. I was shook to the core. Neck jaw,back, insides feel bruised,hip, both ankles, wrists. I totalled the bike so I can't afford hospital. I've had a feeling of being on a boat in my head. How much longer can I expect this issue, it's been 3 weeks. Sorry to pester but I'm starting to get worried and can't get an answer from anyone but "go to he hospital for x-ray"
Thanks a million for this video, honestly 🙏. I'm 5 weeks in of a fibular avulsion fracture, got a MRI and it doesn't exclude a fracture to the medial malleolus too 😭 it says there's bone bruising likely to be an undisplaced fracture or trabecular injury, but sounds inconclusive to me and your video truly helps.
You really didn't talk about bone bruising. You talked about getting X-rays and scans and so on. I didn't get any of that. I have fallen on my bike a few times. The first time I did go to the hospital because I could not walk. I got back on my bike and road home. I was able to walk upstairs and facetimed with my sister. She told me to go to the hospital. I could not walk when I got downstairs so some people brought over a chair and dragged me to my moms car. At the hospital they found that nothing was broken. However, I still couldn't walk. They gave me a walker. It took 14 days for me to heal. This time when I fell I had put my foot down to stop myself from falling. I was standing still and the bike fell over. I didn't think this was bad. When I got up to walk my bike my left leg was very wobbly. I could not walk on it. I thought this was a bone bruise. I'm going on my second week, this Friday. It is better. It hurts, but not as much as it did. I had iced it when it first happened and a few days after. When the pain was too much I had taken Advil or aspirin. I'm not in that much pain anymore. I think I just bruised it. It would have been nice if you said what a bruise was and what to do for it.
The real question is why the heck are you falling off bikes maybe you should try a different hobby! You just better be doing some bmx stuff bro cuz if not idk what your doing to fall off a bike i dont think i ever fell of a bike in my life of course once i learn how to ride one WOAHHHHH lol
Hey everyone I have a bone bruised foot from falling hard on it when bouldering. I'm 4 months in. Way longer than it should go. From keepin it still, I got a Morbus Sudeck and a CRPS. Now I gotta make sure to do everything right. I'm a tennis teacher and it's hard to not move a lot. But as the doc said, you should ice it and elevate it. What helps me most right now with the pain is to not walk barefoot on hard surfaces. I can only talk for me but since I bought a good soft shoe it's getting better. And I wear it everywhere. Sending out much love and strength to everyone going through something similar. Stay strong! It will go away, just keep "going" slow! 😂❤
I was at skatecity because im moving and it was a goodbye party, im a pretty confident good skater but I have super bad anxiety, at one time I was alone and my sister or mom was near me I was just around strangers all the sudden I get super anxious and have a anxiety attack while skating, I fell backwards and I went into shock and I go a instant migraine, at first I couldn't get up but then two teenagers past by me and laughed, I got up in pure pain sobbing my eyes out, and I located my mom and I told her what happened all though I couldn't explain it very well because my body was still tense from the anxiety attack and I had a migraine, She held me up as we went towards a seat and my mom kept asking me if we need to go to the hospital or emergency room I kept saying no and here's why, what if its a break I would feel defeated, my dad recently broke his arm and I didn't wanna join it, as well because I was able to walk just with a lot of pain and a slight limp. I had a nap as soon as we got home for 4 hours and when I woke up I was stuck there I could not move because I feel as if it wasn't good for me to be in shock, tense and pain at the same time I still refuse to go to the hospital, because I want only to believe its just a bruise as dumb as it sounds I can't handle that. I'm just scared it'll get worse. What should I do?...
Thank you! Just ran my forearm into the door frame and it was a huge lump and purple before I could even look down. Got the ice pack before UA-cam. We'll see how it is in an hour.
Bro same lmao, at first it was painful af and I couldn't walk on it but a couple hours later it got better and i was able to walk. layed down for like an hour and the pain came back.
I popped a rib from a mountain bike accident. Ribs hit the handle bars. Pain on the right side under my pec muscle and directly behind my back. Had a hard time breathing, sneezing and coughing. That was two weeks ago. Hit the chiropractor twice and been some light stretching. Feeling better. A little sore not as bad.
Very helpful! I briefly passed out a month+ ago due to dehydration & abruptly fell onto my damn tile floor & landed on the side of back! :-/ Was just a few seconds but def. was well aware of what happened. Ended up seeing a bunch of bruise marks & verry sore on the left side. Like pulsating soreness & high discomfort & stiff effect but not 'pain'. Kind of borderline. Concern is a month later at x it comes back like it just happened. But like you said if it was 'broken' yes, there would be a brutal difference. I'm normally very active but (hard as it is) now realize if its a bad bruise gotta give it 2+ months. Only been 1. Thinking I have to watch my posture even when I walk or jog.
I broke my pinky finger (proximal phalanx) 2 days ago. Spiral fracture. Doesnt really show displacement. Hand therapist was really ambiguous about whether she thinks i'll need surgery...strange. But no pain at rest now ever since the splint so fingers crossed speedy recovery
I've tripped twice recently going up concrete block stairs in the garden because my garden boots caught when I didn't quite lift my foot to clear the step. Both times it has caused swelling and bruising. I was able to walk and did not fear fractures either time, but both shins where they hit the sharp edge of the concrete block have developed hard bony bumps once the skin healed and bruising went away. They were both very tender for awhile after the injuries but did not hurt to bear weight. I injured right and then left a week or so later. When I was a teenager, I skinned my shin when I missed a balance beam dismount. It also left a bony prominence. I'm 65, so not young, but what actually happens to cause a bony prominence after a contusion?
How long blunt injury in chest take to heal.I got hit from sharp table three months ago .Even after three months area is tender.There is some swelling on top of ribs maybe posterium injury or Bruised rib or intercostal Muscles injury or nerve injury.X Ray is totally normal and there is no crack visible.Blood clot faded to light brown after one month. Will it take six months to heal ? I am taking homeopathic treatment and breathing excercise but every now and than that injury start paining like sting or some itching or something.One doctor said we can do CT Scan but in afraid of those harmful rays I didn't took.The Bruise now is little bit light brown and hardly visible.
drink water, eat protein, avoid bad habits. You'll recover in no time. Keep to doing light cardio to increase your metabolism if you can, or use the sauna occasionally. Sauna is a wonder for healing. Best of luck!
I tripped and hit the upper part of my shin on the edge of stairs, then again running up a ladder (I was in a rush-) and my foot slipped, no I didn’t fall, but the same part in my shin slammed the step on the ladder. There’s been a very obvious bump but you can’t see a bruise. It’s been 2 months and I’m concerned. The pain is insane and I don’t know if I should see a doctor or not-
i’ve fractured my thumb a few years back and right away i knew something was wrong it was horrible pain someone landed on it and it was bad pain for the day and day after until i got it checked and sure enough there was a crack through my bone! now i recently hit the same thumb rlly hard on something and it’s been hurting a little for almost a week now but not nearly as bad as it was the first time i fractured it but it kinda feels like it’s fractured again so i’m not sure what’s wrong
I recommend seeing your primary care physician first. Be careful not to wait too long. I was hoping my frozen shoulder pain would go away but it didn't. I had to see an orthopedic doctor and he gave me a steroid shot. It fixed it but now it came back after a car accident. Getting treatment again. ☹ Hope you get better.
Seeing your guises replies this long after, I must mention that by now I am completely fine. I had fractured a shin splint and it had healed amazingly and by the time I saw the physician, he reccomended ice
@@daniellillistone9406 How is your foot? Did you get it checked? My toe has gotten better with time and although it's a little bruised I can walk on it fine with no pain.
Thank you so much Dr. Paull! You are so easy to follow. I really like watching your videos! I just subscribed to your channel. Can one feel a little soreness in the front part of the leg in the shin area when moving one's leg with a bone bruise? Also is it best to wear a compression stocking, leg boot, or a shin splint for comfort while healing? I noticed wearing something with compression greatly helps me to feel better. I have no pain on the bottom of my feet when walking...just a little soreness on the shin area. Is that normal?
How to know if its bruised or broken tailbone? Since the accident, I didn't feel the need to take any painkillers. Its day 10 now and I can sit, walk, bend over with little to no pain but I can still feel minimal discomfort. No bowel pains ever since. I can roll side to side in bed since day 8. I can lay on my back with little discomfort.
I got no pain but I fell off my escooter and hit my kneed and seems like my shin, both had road rash and we bleeing slowly. I though I had a bruise or a bump on my shin and it still looks like it. No pain, been walking on it no problem, but now I got this nagging worry it might be fractured. Definitely NOT going to get an x-ray, so the best I can do is just lay off it and take it easy. I mostly WFH and sit all day, so this wil hel. Now I am also going to avoid stressing this area.
Well recently just bent over and what you know my lower back pain came ... having lower back pain only on left side . Then all of a sudden noticed it's all bruised..I hate my 40s
Hit my Elbow really hard today when loosening a Very Tight bolt on a Tractor.. Bad Pain, but not broken Obviously to Me.. A Pouch has raised over the bruise a little directly on the Elbow Point location.. 2 Aleve Help but There is No Doubt that i have bruised a Tendon imo.. Thank You for Any advise!!?? .. I Will take 2 Aleve at 12 hour intervals to lessen my Discomfort.. Thanks
I slipped on concrete landed on the top of my leg not sure what it’s called however it doesn’t hurt while running or walking but when I touch it, it hurts so bad I’m pretty sure it’s a bone bruise
I had a fall 10 months back, fibular area still looks deformed and discoloured now, wasn't offered an x-ray at the time, it turned black on impact. it was so painful, I had to construct a cage for my bedding, to keep the duvet off it for weeks.
Hey i have a specific area near the top of my shin along the larger bone on the top and the inside that is always tender and has been this way for i dont even know how long at least a year. Sometimes the area develops a hard to see very light greenish bruise. The top of the bone itself also feels more bumpy/lumpy when i run a finger over the top of it than that of my other leg. Any idea what this is? Additional info would be a while ago say 4 years i had quite bad pain starting at the bottom of the shins just above my ankle and radiating upwards. Felt like a tone of needles had been pushed in through the front of my shin or pain in random directions like a piece of pottery shattering and the cracks being lines of pain. I also have a bad ankle on the same side as the current issue which is weak due to ligament damage. Finally i always used to walk on foot and still do to a lesser degree with my heal just touching the floor for a split second here and there. I also walk kind of oddly and have a bad habit of tensing my legs up when walking.
@@ctc9659 ye man it feels like its easier to injure the area for me too. I looked into it a little and it could be a bone bruise, give it a look some time
Wow, that sounds really painful. I assume you don't really want to see a doc, but what you described appears long-term, progressive and kind of serious... At least get it looked at? Maybe a sports doc to help it start to heal?
Hi doc thanks for your info can you talk about a general head bone bruise and AVN ..One doc said early AVN (vascular necrosis) the other said bone bruise with micro fracture and I could heal in time ..I do have dysplasia in both hips and osteoarthritis going on and will need two need hips soon..but as of right now I guess either way I need to say off it because I’m hurting a lot difficulty sleeping and putting weight on and it’s been 4wks now..how do I know if it’s getting worse and hopefully not collapsing the general head and or getting the early AVN.. do I need a 3rd opinion lol or go the hospital if pain doesn’t go away thanks in advance doc..Kelly B the OT
i tripped going up a hill and my hand like tried to catch myself and i literally felt AND heard the shit snap..my thumb smelled into the ground hard asf
I fell yesterday and hit the ground flat, was able to stand up felt some bruises on chin, hands but no pain. The next day I got pain on the front or the breast area where the bone is, and later under the armpit where the bone is. Today I am feeling some discomfort or pain on the back, I know the bones are interconnected inside, but why is this when the section that got hurt is what I mentioned?😢
my friend fractured his collar bone about a year ago, this morning in the gym a small pocket of fluid appeared over where the fracture was, does this mean hes reopened the fracture, he says it doesnt hurt but feels weird, any help or advise. I i know everyones gonna say go and get it xrayed but were in a foreign country and he doesnt have insurance so he doesnt want to pay for it unless its absolutey necessary, cheers in advance
Hey, about two days ago i fell off of a rock wall at a park, probably about like 10 feet tall-ish. I couldn't hardly put any weight on it at first but now i can sort of walk. I start volley ball in like a week and a half and I have a pageant about the same time as well. No severe bruising, (I have no idea how i didnt break my leg,) but I was wondering if you think I could participate in those activities. Thank you so much, your chanell is very helpful :)
I'm no doctor but 3 years ago I had a pretty severe fracture on my hip. Now at the age of 18 i can tell you that if you had a nasty fall and you are uncertain if you have any small fracture or something else just give it a bit more time to heal and if the pain doesn't go away you should get that checked out. But in general don't do activities that can cause any further injury on your leg. That's what happened to me as well and I ignored it
@@vasilispapadopoulos9940 thanks for your reply!!! It is about a week later and it feels a lot better and i can almost walk normally now. thanks again for your response!!
Volleyball requires a lot of jumping I would get a bone scan especially with a fall of that height. It’s actually pretty impressive that you’re even walking. How are ya doing now?
My husband came up behind me and pulled me back I feel like my back is hurt bad as well as my neck and he hit he in my side of my face it’s hard for me to eat. I can’t even call the cops because they don’t care about my bruises and they try to put me in the mental hospital.
Spiral fracture of my fibula .. & my ankle had surgery & I fell again & my arm hit the wall .. 🤦🏽♀️😩.. & now pain in my arm .. & just got X-rays & hope I didn’t break another bone 👀👀🫣😖
Hi, About a week ago I was riding my bike and hit a tree. I landed on my are which I broke about a year ago. I am in a lot of pain but I'm like 80% sure it's not a break. There are no bruises. What should I do?
Hey dude, I went to sky zone today and I went to the slide like feet like I laid on my tummy. I don’t know I look at my arm and it’s kinda like I don’t know if it’s bruised or something happened to it my bruise looks so bad and I have to participate in pe do you have some recommendations that I could do on Monday if I participate in pe or not
just fell off my skateboard onto my hand/wrist and there is no pain in resting state only when i move it to the right or left alot. Also i have bruising on the right side of my hand. do you think that is just a sprain or should i seek medical assistance
I mean like i broke my bones Multiple Times and idk but they didnt hurt that bad even thought i once broke my elbow and a bone was sticking our of my skin and that shit hurt but like a normal broken bone dosent really hurt
I have a broken bone in my hand right now but I am getting an x-ray I'm too hard headed for that and I used to play a high G on my life I can't deal with pain only way I'd go get it x-rated the whole arm was broken
My son has a bone bruise on the head of his shoulder but he has no idea how it happened. He’s had a very tough time pitching. We thought if was a torn labrum but no tears. How long will that last. He’s been hurting since October
I just had an incident in a soccer match today where the lateral anterior area of my lower leg about 2 inches above the lateral malleolus was struck hard. The area is tender to the touch but I also have sharp pain now whenever I put weight on the leg and try to dorsiflex or plantar flex. It literally feels like my Achilles will snap in half when I put weight on the foot and try to flex the ankle which is weird because I was struck in the anterior part of my leg, not my Achilles
Bruised the bone to the side of my big toe playing football and instead of kicking the ball, I kicked the bottom of someone’s football boots where the studs are + getting the same place trodden on twice again the same day. Bone bruise indeed. Even the slightest brush hurts when I touch it.
Bro i gottt thee sammme injury as you exactly and i was looking for help beacause i didnt know what to search on youtube did you find any solution or something and what we should do because i cant shot a ball i feel shocked when i touch a football with my feet
@@jysko2461 wishing you well bro, and at the hospital they said to take some pain killers and for me I can still play football because what has actually happened is I have soft tissue so that may be the same as you. You should also Ice the area
Hi my finger is very swollen and get like a little purple but I can’t go to the doctor because the virus that’s going on so I would like to know like that so I need to get all of my fingers like my bone is a bruise or something I like it’s broken
I hit myself right on the shin, it still hurts after a month. I walk ok & there’s no pain when I walk but there is pain when I bump my shin on something like a ladder. There is a small bump there where my injury occurred.
I fell while ice skating and ended up with a pain in my tailbone area but no black and blue marks been over a week when I take meds for it the pain goes away for hours so was wondering if it sounds serious or not
I hit my ankle earlier today and a bruise immediately occurred with limited swelling. I had extreme pain for the first 30 minutes or so, and couldn't put any pressure on it. It still hurts, but I can limp around in pain, so I'm assuming it's not broken??? I'm having surgery on my wrist on Thursday, so I can't take any pain meds until then. There's really no point to my message, other than OUCH, it hurts!!!
I’m getting X-rays I feel a lump on my finger first I injured it by punching the wall playing vr and then injured it playing volleyball when my friend hit it so it’s blue and there’s a lump and hurts really bad👍🥲
I have tailbone pain and no doctor has been able to give me a diagnosis (reason for the pain). I have had an Xray and an MRI and they were normal. What would you recommend for finding out the reason for my pain?
😂😂😂i didn't think I'd find other people i ate the pavement but my arm broke my fall i was wondering if it was broke its going on like 2 weeks now and i feel a bump on my bone and hurt its if anything touches it
Hi I have punched something and my small finger is now stiff and bruised on the outside and is for some reason bruised on my palm and side of hand and is really hurts when I try and move it and I can’t could you please help me out
Sometimes when someone punches a wall they end up hitting a stud. The damage usually goes to the small finger metacarpal because it's more mobile than the stiffer index and long finger metacarpals. What ends up happening is something called a boxer's fracture of the small finger metacarpal neck. X-rays will tell for sure whether it is broken, and whether or not someone needs a splint or surgery.
I have probably a bruised knuckle bone, it was swollen. I have no problems with moving my finger or lifting weight but Im still concerned will it become a problem in the future I didn't go for a x-ray
My elbow is slightly sore when I move my left arm or when I pick things up. Bumped it against a downed tree limb chopping firewood about 3 weeks ago. Was a little more sore then than now, however have never felt intense pain from it at all. It is like it is just still there and I have no obvious other symptoms other than a slight amount of pain. Also like to exercise by doing jumping jacks on a rebounder. Is this cause for any concern?
Hi dr i had an accident on July 13 2023 and a taxi driver did was hit and run and injured my right ankle and right knees and my head my my ear and my eyes and neck and right shoulder and i did went to emergency hospital and i also had MRI done but the result of the MRI was my knee is fracture and my right ankle is also being damaged of my tissu or the tendency. Pleaas i am really suffering and extremely pain and can't walk or stand up due to that incident after and please can you give me some help or tips thank you and god bless you DR.
Hey I doubt you will respond but today I was playing basketball and tripped along with my friend so I felt his 160 pounds on my knee as it hit the pavement. The pain was excruciating for a minute or two but after that I hardly felt anything at all and the pain almost completely went away after an hour. Because of the terrible pain I felt for a moment I think it might be bruised? Even though I can not feel any pain now. Is the pain a good indicator that nothing terrible has happened to my knee?
I cracked my back rib when I fell off my ladder and it is very painful when I breathe or use my left arm. How do I fix it? surgery or therapy. Experience such terrible pain when I try to use my left arm and I actually peed my pants. please help
My right elbow , i slipped on the floor wood floor almost 1-2 weeks ago i can almost full extended just at the end its getting real hurt and when i contraction my arm muscle hurts should i go to ER
I have a bruised knuckle, I had it x rayed and it’s not broken but the knuckle is huge. I can still move it good but hurts to put my hand in a fist.. so is it just gonna take months to heal??
Hi, I fell down some stairs over a week ago and got an xray which didn't show any fracture but I can't put any pressure on my left leg for a long period of time. Does this sound like a bruise? I work on my feet for hours but had to take off. Just curious!
I just broke my dang elbow 2 days my ankle gave out and I tripped and tried to break my fall and sprained my wrist and broke the elbow what's funny is my wrist hurts more than my elbow
Hi I'm a soccer player and I believe I have a bone bruise on the lower part of my shin. I've been icing it and taking ibuprofen to help heal it. Is there anything else I can do to help the healing process?
Bone bruises can take a long time to go away, there isn't a whole lot you can do to speed it up. Sometimes shin splints can act like that, unfortunately the best way to get rid of shin splints is to rest.
I was standing in my living room looking at my xray ct scan and mri machine not knowing which one to use....this video really helped...thanks!
Thx Dr. Great info going for x-ray.
😂 There’s always a hero in the comments
The pain makes you wanna pass out that’s how you know you fractured it
I wasn't too sure about this one. I broke my foot. It hurt like cra[ but I have daily pian that's worse
Or weep.
I got a boxers fracture and it didn’t hurt that bad. Only way I knew it was broken was because I could feel the bones grinding when I moved it.
Not always. None of my fractures were particularly painful, I've had bone bruises and sprains that felt worse. What tipped me off was feeling shivery and tired (like with a fever) and/or limited range of motion (like 5 degrees one broken elbow, 45 another).
My pain tolarance is quite high so it's hard to tell whenever I break something I need to go on visual symptoms problem is I never get the purple swelling so it's difficult
Dropped my hydrofask on the tip of my calcaneus. 2 weeks out from state competition as a powerlifter. This is about 2 hours after and I’m praying

I had a nap as soon as we got home for 4 hours and when I woke up I was stuck there I could not move because I feel as if it wasn't good for me to be in shock, tense and pain at the same time I still refuse to go to the hospital, because I want only to believe its just a bruise as dumb as it sounds I can't handle that. I'm just scared it'll get worse. What should I do?...
I had a bone bruise before. Doctors told me I need to slow down, only do it a few times a week instead of 6 times every night.
Oh my gosh you are still the man. 😆 🤣 😂
Which bone
@@absfinal I forgot, you'll have to ask your mother
only do what
bet its gonna be a ur mom joke
Your well wishes made me giggle at the beginning. Thanks for that hahah
Thank you! Just ran my forearm into the door frame and it was a huge lump and purple before I could even look down. Got the ice pack before UA-cam. We'll see how it is in an hour.
No braking. Bruised! Using - arnicare gel : heals bruising n pain relief.
My left foot hurts, I ran across the room and accidentally my foot did a 90°
Bro same lmao, at first it was painful af and I couldn't walk on it but a couple hours later it got better and i was able to walk. layed down for like an hour and the pain came back.
Stop wearing female heels pumps fruity
How long should the bruise from bone bruise go away? Mine has lasted 4 weeks + now. 2 X ray’s don’t show fracture
I would just recommend you cry
@@Hoboscouts You are pathetic for that comment
I popped a rib from a mountain bike accident. Ribs hit the handle bars. Pain on the right side under my pec muscle and directly behind my back. Had a hard time breathing, sneezing and coughing. That was two weeks ago. Hit the chiropractor twice and been some light stretching. Feeling better. A little sore not as bad.
Very helpful! I briefly passed out a month+ ago due to dehydration & abruptly fell onto my damn tile floor & landed on the side of back! :-/ Was just a few seconds but def. was well aware of what happened. Ended up seeing a bunch of bruise marks & verry sore on the left side. Like pulsating soreness & high discomfort & stiff effect but not 'pain'. Kind of borderline. Concern is a month later at x it comes back like it just happened. But like you said if it was 'broken' yes, there would be a brutal difference. I'm normally very active but (hard as it is) now realize if its a bad bruise gotta give it 2+ months. Only been 1. Thinking I have to watch my posture even when I walk or jog.
I broke my pinky finger (proximal phalanx) 2 days ago. Spiral fracture. Doesnt really show displacement. Hand therapist was really ambiguous about whether she thinks i'll need surgery...strange. But no pain at rest now ever since the splint so fingers crossed speedy recovery
How did it go?
I've tripped twice recently going up concrete block stairs in the garden because my garden boots caught when I didn't quite lift my foot to clear the step. Both times it has caused swelling and bruising. I was able to walk and did not fear fractures either time, but both shins where they hit the sharp edge of the concrete block have developed hard bony bumps once the skin healed and bruising went away. They were both very tender for awhile after the injuries but did not hurt to bear weight. I injured right and then left a week or so later. When I was a teenager, I skinned my shin when I missed a balance beam dismount. It also left a bony prominence. I'm 65, so not young, but what actually happens to cause a bony prominence after a contusion?
Bone if damaged will remodel, and it doesn't always remodel exactly how you would like it to which can create bony prominences
Was yours a bone bruise?
This kinda sounds like what I have and did.
How long blunt injury in chest take to heal.I got hit from sharp table three months ago .Even after three months area is tender.There is some swelling on top of ribs maybe posterium injury or Bruised rib or intercostal Muscles injury or nerve injury.X Ray is totally normal and there is no crack visible.Blood clot faded to light brown after one month. Will it take six months to heal ? I am taking homeopathic treatment and breathing excercise but every now and than that injury start paining like sting or some itching or something.One doctor said we can do CT Scan but in afraid of those harmful rays I didn't took.The Bruise now is little bit light brown and hardly visible.
I landed on my toe skateboarding off a ramp and came down heavy from jumping high
drink water, eat protein, avoid bad habits. You'll recover in no time. Keep to doing light cardio to increase your metabolism if you can, or use the sauna occasionally. Sauna is a wonder for healing. Best of luck!
I was in a wreck and my chins are extremely painful to the touch. I can walk on them but my legs swell after a day
I get regular bruises along my shin whenever I do lower body exercises. I had a fracture on my right tibia but it healed a while ago.
I did a front flip yesterday and really banged my elbow and now it’s really sore
I tripped and hit the upper part of my shin on the edge of stairs, then again running up a ladder (I was in a rush-) and my foot slipped, no I didn’t fall, but the same part in my shin slammed the step on the ladder. There’s been a very obvious bump but you can’t see a bruise. It’s been 2 months and I’m concerned. The pain is insane and I don’t know if I should see a doctor or not-
i’ve fractured my thumb a few years back and right away i knew something was wrong it was horrible pain someone landed on it and it was bad pain for the day and day after until i got it checked and sure enough there was a crack through my bone! now i recently hit the same thumb rlly hard on something and it’s been hurting a little for almost a week now but not nearly as bad as it was the first time i fractured it but it kinda feels like it’s fractured again so i’m not sure what’s wrong
I recommend seeing your primary care physician first. Be careful not to wait too long. I was hoping my frozen shoulder pain would go away but it didn't. I had to see an orthopedic doctor and he gave me a steroid shot. It fixed it but now it came back after a car accident. Getting treatment again. ☹ Hope you get better.
Seeing your guises replies this long after, I must mention that by now I am completely fine. I had fractured a shin splint and it had healed amazingly and by the time I saw the physician, he reccomended ice
Stubbed my toe last night and hurts to put pressure on it but no visible swelling or bruising or dislocation this morning. Still tender.
Me too but my toe looks like a balloon. If it's still bad tommorow I'll go to A&E since it's free in the UK but this was a super helpful video
@@daniellillistone9406 How is your foot? Did you get it checked? My toe has gotten better with time and although it's a little bruised I can walk on it fine with no pain.
Man I fell snowboarding back in November… pain is still here especially cause I sit for long periods of time
I stubbed my toe really hard and can’t walk rn and it really hurts but my family doesn’t care so I kinda just have to deal with it
Thank you so much for this, so well explained and getting straight to the information is so appreciated! Many thanks.
Thank you so much Dr. Paull! You are so easy to follow. I really like watching your videos! I just subscribed to your channel. Can one feel a little soreness in the front part of the leg in the shin area when moving one's leg with a bone bruise? Also is it best to wear a compression stocking, leg boot, or a shin splint for comfort while healing? I noticed wearing something with compression greatly helps me to feel better. I have no pain on the bottom of my feet when walking...just a little soreness on the shin area. Is that normal?
It's very painful to twist my arm at some degree and is swelling. Should I take an x-ray or is it just a bruise. Fell from a 6ft+ tall ladder.
How to know if its bruised or broken tailbone? Since the accident, I didn't feel the need to take any painkillers. Its day 10 now and I can sit, walk, bend over with little to no pain but I can still feel minimal discomfort. No bowel pains ever since. I can roll side to side in bed since day 8. I can lay on my back with little discomfort.
Fractured tailbone. I never felt it night after my whiplash felt better that is. Sometimes i still feel the pain
How long does a heel bone bruise take to heal?
I got no pain but I fell off my escooter and hit my kneed and seems like my shin, both had road rash and we bleeing slowly. I though I had a bruise or a bump on my shin and it still looks like it. No pain, been walking on it no problem, but now I got this nagging worry it might be fractured.
Definitely NOT going to get an x-ray, so the best I can do is just lay off it and take it easy. I mostly WFH and sit all day, so this wil hel. Now I am also going to avoid stressing this area.
Got in a fight and took a good hit to my jaw. Hurts less but I can't chew too well at the moment because the pain gets worse.
Here after I punched my fridge last night lol
Well recently just bent over and what you know my lower back pain came ... having lower back pain only on left side . Then all of a sudden noticed it's all bruised..I hate my 40s
I got a boxers fracture and it didn't hurt that bad. Only way I knew it was broken was because I could feel the bones grinding when I moved it.
Hit my Elbow really hard today when loosening a Very Tight bolt on a Tractor.. Bad Pain, but not broken Obviously to Me.. A Pouch has raised over the bruise a little directly on the Elbow Point location.. 2 Aleve Help but There is No Doubt that i have bruised a Tendon imo.. Thank You for Any advise!!?? .. I Will take 2 Aleve at 12 hour intervals to lessen my Discomfort.. Thanks
I slipped on concrete landed on the top of my leg not sure what it’s called however it doesn’t hurt while running or walking but when I touch it, it hurts so bad I’m pretty sure it’s a bone bruise
I had a fall 10 months back, fibular area still looks deformed and discoloured now, wasn't offered an x-ray at the time, it turned black on impact. it was so painful, I had to construct a cage for my bedding, to keep the duvet off it for weeks.
Hi. I Was hitting a table top while mtb fell of and the handle bar hit my groin i think I had a bone bruise or a fracture
Hey i have a specific area near the top of my shin along the larger bone on the top and the inside that is always tender and has been this way for i dont even know how long at least a year. Sometimes the area develops a hard to see very light greenish bruise. The top of the bone itself also feels more bumpy/lumpy when i run a finger over the top of it than that of my other leg.
Any idea what this is? Additional info would be a while ago say 4 years i had quite bad pain starting at the bottom of the shins just above my ankle and radiating upwards. Felt like a tone of needles had been pushed in through the front of my shin or pain in random directions like a piece of pottery shattering and the cracks being lines of pain. I also have a bad ankle on the same side as the current issue which is weak due to ligament damage. Finally i always used to walk on foot and still do to a lesser degree with my heal just touching the floor for a split second here and there. I also walk kind of oddly and have a bad habit of tensing my legs up when walking.
Yo I got the same thing and it keeps getting kicked or hit with the soccer ball and it hurts baddddd after that
@@ctc9659 ye man it feels like its easier to injure the area for me too. I looked into it a little and it could be a bone bruise, give it a look some time
@@N1TRO yea I will. It’s just it keeps getting hit by stuff not even just soccer
shin splits?
Wow, that sounds really painful. I assume you don't really want to see a doc, but what you described appears long-term, progressive and kind of serious... At least get it looked at? Maybe a sports doc to help it start to heal?
Hi doc thanks for your info can you talk about a general head bone bruise and AVN ..One doc said early AVN (vascular necrosis) the other said bone bruise with micro fracture and I could heal in time ..I do have dysplasia in both hips and osteoarthritis going on and will need two need hips soon..but as of right now I guess either way I need to say off it because I’m hurting a lot difficulty sleeping and putting weight on and it’s been 4wks now..how do I know if it’s getting worse and hopefully not collapsing the general head and or getting the early AVN.. do I need a 3rd opinion lol or go the hospital if pain doesn’t go away thanks in advance doc..Kelly B the OT
I hope you all feel better and beware of falling toolboxes
If you have a bruised wrist do arm curls with heavy weights, do a couple sets and get through the pain and pain should be gone in 2-3 days
i tripped going up a hill and my hand like tried to catch myself and i literally felt AND heard the shit snap..my thumb smelled into the ground hard asf
2 months ago I landed on the concrete from about 2 feet up straight on my knee cap. Still hurts pretty bad. Getting an xray tomorrow
I fell yesterday and hit the ground flat, was able to stand up felt some bruises on chin, hands but no pain. The next day I got pain on the front or the breast area where the bone is, and later under the armpit where the bone is. Today I am feeling some discomfort or pain on the back, I know the bones are interconnected inside, but why is this when the section that got hurt is what I mentioned?😢
my friend fractured his collar bone about a year ago, this morning in the gym a small pocket of fluid appeared over where the fracture was, does this mean hes reopened the fracture, he says it doesnt hurt but feels weird, any help or advise. I i know everyones gonna say go and get it xrayed but were in a foreign country and he doesnt have insurance so he doesnt want to pay for it unless its absolutey necessary, cheers in advance
doc how long take time to recover a severe knee bone bruice?
Hey, about two days ago i fell off of a rock wall at a park, probably about like 10 feet tall-ish. I couldn't hardly put any weight on it at first but now i can sort of walk. I start volley ball in like a week and a half and I have a pageant about the same time as well. No severe bruising, (I have no idea how i didnt break my leg,) but I was wondering if you think I could participate in those activities.
Thank you so much, your chanell is very helpful :)
I'm no doctor but 3 years ago I had a pretty severe fracture on my hip. Now at the age of 18 i can tell you that if you had a nasty fall and you are uncertain if you have any small fracture or something else just give it a bit more time to heal and if the pain doesn't go away you should get that checked out. But in general don't do activities that can cause any further injury on your leg. That's what happened to me as well and I ignored it
@@vasilispapadopoulos9940 thanks for your reply!!! It is about a week later and it feels a lot better and i can almost walk normally now. thanks again for your response!!
Volleyball requires a lot of jumping I would get a bone scan especially with a fall of that height. It’s actually pretty impressive that you’re even walking. How are ya doing now?
my rib made a noise! it didn't hurt at the time but the pain got worse over time. I was wrestling a co worker over the last doughnut lol
My husband came up behind me and pulled me back I feel like my back is hurt bad as well as my neck and he hit he in my side of my face it’s hard for me to eat. I can’t even call the cops because they don’t care about my bruises and they try to put me in the mental hospital.
Spiral fracture of my fibula .. & my ankle had surgery & I fell again & my arm hit the wall .. 🤦🏽♀️😩.. & now pain in my arm .. & just got X-rays & hope I didn’t break another bone 👀👀🫣😖
Thanks Einstein, what are we 7 years old?
Hi, About a week ago I was riding my bike and hit a tree. I landed on my are which I broke about a year ago. I am in a lot of pain but I'm like 80% sure it's not a break. There are no bruises. What should I do?
Please edit your writing, you broke something but what?
Hey dude, I went to sky zone today and I went to the slide like feet like I laid on my tummy. I don’t know I look at my arm and it’s kinda like I don’t know if it’s bruised or something happened to it my bruise looks so bad and I have to participate in pe do you have some recommendations that I could do on Monday if I participate in pe or not
just fell off my skateboard onto my hand/wrist and there is no pain in resting state only when i move it to the right or left alot. Also i have bruising on the right side of my hand. do you think that is just a sprain or should i seek medical assistance
Did you see a doctor? My injury was similar, no pain until I do certain movements. 11 months since your post, how are you now?
I mean like i broke my bones Multiple Times and idk but they didnt hurt that bad even thought i once broke my elbow and a bone was sticking our of my skin and that shit hurt but like a normal broken bone dosent really hurt
I have a broken bone in my hand right now but I am getting an x-ray I'm too hard headed for that and I used to play a high G on my life I can't deal with pain only way I'd go get it x-rated the whole arm was broken
My son has a bone bruise on the head of his shoulder but he has no idea how it happened. He’s had a very tough time pitching. We thought if was a torn labrum but no tears. How long will that last. He’s been hurting since October
I just had an incident in a soccer match today where the lateral anterior area of my lower leg about 2 inches above the lateral malleolus was struck hard. The area is tender to the touch but I also have sharp pain now whenever I put weight on the leg and try to dorsiflex or plantar flex. It literally feels like my Achilles will snap in half when I put weight on the foot and try to flex the ankle which is weird because I was struck in the anterior part of my leg, not my Achilles
Bruised the bone to the side of my big toe playing football and instead of kicking the ball, I kicked the bottom of someone’s football boots where the studs are + getting the same place trodden on twice again the same day. Bone bruise indeed. Even the slightest brush hurts when I touch it.

How did you heal it? @@joeshmoe8952
I fell while ice skating and ended up with a pain in my tailbone area but no black and blue marks been over a week when I take meds for it the pain goes away for hours so was wondering if it sounds serious or not
I hit my ankle earlier today and a bruise immediately occurred with limited swelling. I had extreme pain for the first 30 minutes or so, and couldn't put any pressure on it. It still hurts, but I can limp around in pain, so I'm assuming it's not broken??? I'm having surgery on my wrist on Thursday, so I can't take any pain meds until then. There's really no point to my message, other than OUCH, it hurts!!!
I’m getting X-rays I feel a lump on my finger first I injured it by punching the wall playing vr and then injured it playing volleyball when my friend hit it so it’s blue and there’s a lump and hurts really bad👍🥲
So I can still go to the gym and my bone bruise can heal, hell yeah
I have an injury on my leg above the ankle that didn't show up as a fracture with , the bruising becomes green down to my heel.

Hi I have punched something and my small finger is now stiff and bruised on the outside and is for some reason bruised on my palm and side of hand and is really hurts when I try and move it and I can’t could you please help me out
Sometimes when someone punches a wall they end up hitting a stud. The damage usually goes to the small finger metacarpal because it's more mobile than the stiffer index and long finger metacarpals. What ends up happening is something called a boxer's fracture of the small finger metacarpal neck. X-rays will tell for sure whether it is broken, and whether or not someone needs a splint or surgery.
I have probably a bruised knuckle bone, it was swollen. I have no problems with moving my finger or lifting weight but Im still concerned will it become a problem in the future I didn't go for a x-ray

Hi Dr. I have broken pinky toe.. although it is not dislocated but it is slightly tilted outside.. what is the reason?
My elbow is slightly sore when I move my left arm or when I pick things up.
Bumped it against a downed tree limb chopping firewood about 3 weeks ago. Was a little more sore then than now, however have never felt intense pain from it at all. It is like it is just still there and I have no obvious other symptoms other than a slight amount of pain.
Also like to exercise by doing jumping jacks on a rebounder. Is this cause for any concern?
I am also sore on my elbow from falling on ice

Hey I doubt you will respond but today I was playing basketball and tripped along with my friend so I felt his 160 pounds on my knee as it hit the pavement. The pain was excruciating for a minute or two but after that I hardly felt anything at all and the pain almost completely went away after an hour. Because of the terrible pain I felt for a moment I think it might be bruised? Even though I can not feel any pain now. Is the pain a good indicator that nothing terrible has happened to my knee?
I jumped from like 7 feet and there happend to be a stupid rock at the bottom specially where i landed so i landed the lower part of my foot on it

Hi, I fell down some stairs over a week ago and got an xray which didn't show any fracture but I can't put any pressure on my left leg for a long period of time. Does this sound like a bruise? I work on my feet for hours but had to take off. Just curious!

Hi I'm a soccer player and I believe I have a bone bruise on the lower part of my shin. I've been icing it and taking ibuprofen to help heal it. Is there anything else I can do to help the healing process?
Bone bruises can take a long time to go away, there isn't a whole lot you can do to speed it up. Sometimes shin splints can act like that, unfortunately the best way to get rid of shin splints is to rest.
@@orthopedics Okay thank you!
@Yuvraj Rajput still hurts but the swelling and pain is better
