[|Human|] i hit both my shins on a metal step on a play ground around 1 week ago. It was very painful as i have a lot of bruises but one bruise started bleeding and is still a bit black. It is now numb when i touch it and has a bump. what is this and is it normal?
[|AI|]  Here you have explained you have bruises, numbness, bump at shin border after hit with a metal on ground. Now here since you have got hit with metal, I suggest at least tetanus should be taken. Apart from this check on your pain is it increasing or reducing. Are you able to give weight on your leg? Are you able to walk or not? If there is too many difficulties then I suggest visiting or tho doctor once. Let him examine and take x-ray too. Here the doctor will guide you for treatment as per his diagnosis and x-ray report. He may ask you for physiotherapy treatment as a conservative treatment along with few medications if there is no major damage. For major damage he may keep a plaster(pop) for you. I suggest you can use cold pack and hot pack frequently at home to have some more relief. And do not scratch the bump, let doctor do what is necessary. Black color change of skin could be because of sudden impact (injury) to soft tissue. I have given here general guideline I suggest following it step by step, and I am sure this will be useful for you. Take care.
