Symptoms of broken hip

I fell real hard a week ago disastering a rail. There is no bruising but the hip still kills me. I get shooting pains down my leg but I am able to walk and everything only with a slight limp. Should I get x-rays or is it not broken from what I've described
 
it could be a slit fracture, i know someone who just had to get her hip fractured so they could take bone out of it and she was walking around with a limp but she wasnt in unbearable pain, so maybe just wait it out a little longer and then get xrays
 
I nailed my hip on a rock last year and had the same problems as you, so it's probably not broken. And if it was broken, I don't think you'd be doing a whole lot of walking around. But it's always a good idea to get it checked out, problems like that generally get worse with time.
 
ya man, get it checked out. those shooting pains could be indicitive of nerve damage. u should definatly see the doc
 
r u serious, people dont just break hips, your probably fine i got the same shit during the first few weeks of XC u prob have a minor muscle spasm. Just stretch and ice
 
if you had a broken hip, you'd know it....

you might have turbecolmonococcus, which is a viral disease...you mgiht wanna get it checked out..

Dude definately get it looked at. My best friend was boarding like 5 years ago and cased out on a huge jump. He said his hip hurt a lot and also had pain in his leg, but kept walking on it for like a week before he finally went to a doctor. The angle at which he broke his hip made it possible for him to walk with minimal pain, but had he not gone in and gotten his hip fixed he may have never walked again.
 
yea get it checked out man. weird things like that^ happen. but when you fell did you feel sick? cas when i broke my hand i felt sick....and hungry strangely...i remember i was craving subway
 
I really really really doubt you broke your hip if you're walking at all but you should still get it checked out cause there might be somthing else wrong with it
 
i'm sure you're fine i pretty much have the same things right now, no bruising yet but i've lost most feeing from my last rib to a little past my hip other than the constant tingling sensation and yeah i get the shooting pains it sucks, but it's probably just nerve damage or something?
 
mos def get it looked at, im pretty sure a doctor will know more than a bunch of 12 year olds on ns. plus my friend broke his hip a few years ago overshooting a jump and could still walk fine with minimal pain.
