Can someone tell me how people know if their leg is fractured?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fractures: typically are associated with significant pain, swelling, bruising, loss of function, deformity and possibly instability of the involved limb or joint. If it is in your leg it will be impossible to bear weight without sever pain. IF you think you have a fracture seek help as immediately as possible and evaluation by Xray and an orthopedic specialist.
