Legs ran over by car
My legs and ankles were ran over by a car, no fractures or broken bones and I have all the feeling. I have an abrasion on my right ankle and a lot of bruising but that’s about it. I am expected to use crutches because I can put pressure on my left leg but when I try the right leg that dangles feels like it’s going to explode. Anytime I dangle it.. on the toilet, over the bed, on the crutches it just gives me an excruciating pain that feels like my whole leg knee down is overfilling with fluid
