HI,

I was just bumped by a car while riding my bike home (a couple hours ago now) and have a bulge and bruise on the lateral distal region of my femur (to the right of the quads). I suspect that I pulled a muscle as that leg is what broke my fall. I highly doubt that I fractured my femur because I am not in immense pain... I am mostly just sore with a feeling of tightness when I bend my leg. Can you help me to rule a fracture out? I would like to avoid an unnecessary trip to the ER if at all possible. :)
