Hi, Could You Please Give Me Some Advise On My

Hi,

Could you please give me some advise on my course of action after a fall last night down a set of stairs.

I slipped down three steps on a steep staircase while at work, and as I landed felt a very painful tear across
My right thigh.
I felt like I was going to pass out and was sick, I put ice on my leg for half an hour,and then managed to hobble home.
This morning I am not able to put any weight on my leg without being in pain.
Should I just rest and let time take its course or should I seek medical help?

I look forward to your response

THANK YOU

NICK JEFFREY
