Broken leg

Seek medical attention promptly if you suspect you have a broken leg. Such injuries commonly occur due to significant incidents, such as a car accident. Signs that you may have fractured your leg include pain, swelling, or difficulty moving it. In more severe cases, you might notice an open wound with the bone protruding.

Common symptoms:

Difficult to move

Painful, swollen and bruised

Shorter, twisted or bent

Making a grating noise (if the ends of the broken bones rub together)
