What Causes Pain On The Right Side Post A Bike Accident?
I crashed my bike going really fast downhill in the rain, I landed on my right side. I was a bit dizzy for a couple hours but that went away, my right side HURTS bad. It was ok after work but when I sat down when I stood back up I could hardly stand up and walk it hurt so bad. is this anything to worry about?

Hi... if your able to walk with minimal pain then unlikely a bony injury it is mostly soft tissue injury. Things to do. Take pain killer ( tab. Diclofenac 50mg ) twice a day. if any abrasion present do a dressing and keep it clean and dry. Take inj tetanus toxoid. Take rest for next couple of days. But if the pain persists or if the wound is big then visit the hospital. Thank u
