How To Manage The Bruising On Thigh And Headache Following A Fall?

I fell from stairs and now have a huge bruise on my right thigh (side) I hit the same spot at least 4 times. Nothing with lower back. I have a slight headache and the bruise (about 3 inches) hurts only when I touch it. What do you recommend? Should I go to urgent care?

Hi,

GET xray of affected thigh done in AP VIEW and send me the report.

You should not ignore all that visit ER immediately if possible.

Thanks
