if it were broken ti would hurt worsened than it does now. The Bruse is needing time to go down Ice it down like twice a day until it goes down.

yes you should go to the doctor's. put ice on it to essay and alter downbound the swelling, could be that you meet sprained it, however not something you don't want to take care of properly, i did that a few eld ago and today i have tendentious in my knee, hurts every the time.

This is a no-brainer. With your symptoms and the degree of pain, symptom and swelling, the answer is YES! Only an X-Ray can determine if there is a fracture. A follow-up CAT scan or MRI haw also be necessary to verify if you tore a ligament or cartilage. As for the crutches, that will be determined by an categorization of the severity of your injury. As of this time, there is no categorization because you haven't had the pertinent tests permormed. So go to the ER and get it X-Rayed!

Yes i would go to the doctors. If you can walk at all it is belike NOT a fracture, but it could be a very diminutive one, or a torn ligament. Go as soon as possible. In the meantime, ice it, elevate it above your hips, and rest it. Dont walk more than necessary, and if it is a fracture, or torn ligament then yes you module belike need crutches, but its up to the docs. Good luck!
