I was riding my bike on a gravel trail. I went to stand up to go faster but the chain switched gears and my foot slipped and the bike jerked to the right and I fell. When I landed I was still on the bike but on my right side so my entire right leg and foot is bruised. When my foot slipped I fell off the seat and hit my crotch on the bar. I have the most horrible looking bruise down there it s right above my crotch. It s red in the middle and then blue and purple around it. And there s like a bunch of red dots on the bruise like I got hit with a softball. And it s painful to switch sitting positions, go up or down stairs, and to stand or sit down, but not that painful. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would say 3. Could I have severely injured myself down there? Should I go to the ER?
Hi, Showing nature and extent of injury and extensive bruises on the part you might require medical check up. There might be possibility of having blunt injury in scrotum might create problem in the future. Go to ER and get examined. Ok and take care.
