Hi, do you think I should see a doctor, or it will overcome itself. A week ago, I crossed one chain between the pillars, stepped wrong, stumbled, the point is that the right leg caught and the chain and left leg lose balance so I fell on it as if with all the weight. For the first two days I had barely walked, but even there it improved from day to day.

Now on the left leg I slightly curl and feel more pain in my knee and surroundings when moving more. Right leg the one I tripped on the chain there I have a big bruise that goes across the perimeter of almost my entire leg.

The problem is that in my legs and in peace I feel as if tired, weak muscles. And for the last three days, I woke up one night feeling pain in right leg, tonight I woke up as if tingling the heat in my leg muscles and hands? hard to describe it as I fell asleep again immediately . Is it serious and should I go to the doctor or should I wait?

    You must see a doctor and get an xray of both knees. And of course some medication. Only a doctor can tell you if and how serious this is. Hope you feel better quickly, good luck.

    It might be something that will heal in its own time with ice, elevation and rest, but it does really need to be properly assessed so see a doctor and put your mind at rest. You don't want to make things worse by soldiering on if it needs treatment or physio. Good luck!
