I landed on my right side and hit my head on our outside chimney.I initially was only concerned about the scrape and bumb on my head, but 2days later I can hardly walk or bend my upper thigh the pain is so painful!! The first and part of the 2nd day I didn t feel any pain in my leg!! Could it be broken?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
I also suggest using cold compresses for local application.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to do an xray of the leg to exclude the possibility of a fracture.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
