Hi All,

On Sunday I got a real hard kick to the shin during football.

I know, it was the one time I played without shin-pads.

It hurt like hell and a lump about the size and shape of half a chicken breast appeared almost immediately.

The swelling has now gone down and a large bruise and swelling is appearing around my ankle. My ankle does not hurt and is fine but I still can't even stoke my shin, it really hurts.

The bruise around my ankle, was not there when I went to see the Doctor and he said it would be fine and there is no fracture.

Is this something I should be worried about???
