I have a huge lump/bruise on my leg?!
Question: I have a huge lump/bruise on my leg?
So I was messing around today and pretended to fall over at school today but in doing so I slid into an outward corner of the wall. I was running kinda but when it happened I felt like a burning sensation on my leg and it hurt a little but I just kind of ignored it. When I got back to class I lifted my pants to discover a giant baseball sized lump on that spot. It started to hurt more as time when on when I walked but not too bad and when I checked again there was this black bruise the size of a golfball on the center. It hurts too touch and sometimes when I walk. Is it serious? I Iced it for 2 hours with no real results and I'm about to take a shower in Epsom salt. Should I be worried or is it just a bruise and it'll go away on it's own? By the way I'm 17 and the lump rises a few centimeters above my skin and is extremely noticeable. I just want to know if I should be worried.

DUDE i get injured ALL the time.. If you hit it hard try extending it fully, then bringing it in fully. If it does that fine (will have pain) then you should be fine, just rest it. If you cant do that, and the pain is too intense and feels like "somethings wrong" then it probably isnt good.
You got a lump on your leg after hitting it? Blasphemy!
