I accidentally fell yesterday while spading in a flower bed and losing my balance after not being able to penetrate through some gravel and fell on my right side on a concrete patio. Most of the impact seems to be below my right hip with bruising in the thigh area below my buttocks. I cannot bear weight on my right leg when attempting to walk. I can stand but with most of my weight on my other leg. The pain occurs when trying to step out with my right leg. I'm currently using crutches to walk and keeping all weight off my right leg. The pain is in my groin area on my right side. The pain is severe enough that I nearly passed out this morning when seeing how I would do with attempting to step out with right foot. I'm resting in chair with feet up on ottoman, taking Ibuprofen. I'm comfortable in this position. Except for the bruised part of my leg. My husband will be taking me to an ER this afternoon if I don't feel better. He thinks it is a muscular strain. I think it is more serious.
