Called paramedics again, went to emerg, they didn't xray. Said the same thing. I walked around on it til it healed. When I got home from school a few months later I went to my family doctor. Xrays showed it was broken, it healed and now I have arthritis at 24 and may need a knee replacement before I'm 40.
But it shows how tough I can be, I guess. lol
