Last Friday I was longboarding down a hill I fell on my left side and rolled alittle bit I hit my head which is still sore now but I m sure is fine. But my hip really hurts on a scale it s about a 5 maybe a 4 but it s a little swollen around my left hip, it doesn t hurt to walk or run or longboard just hurts when you put pressure on it. Trying to save a trip to the doctors.
