What’s wrong with my leg?
I know y’all aren’t doctors and can’t examine my leg but I just want advice if I should see a doctor.
So about 3 days ago I noticed some pain in my left leg around the knee/lower thigh area. It caused me to limp a bit but seemed to be healing. Today I was riding my skateboard with my girlfriend and took quite a big fall. Now my leg is in horrible pain and I loose balance every once in awhile.
Will this heal or should I see a doctor?

blood clot cutting off circulation to that area . you need immediate blood thinners , otherwise you risk fatal heart attack , fatal stroke , or fatal pulmonary embolism .

It may heal with a great deal of time, but not well. There are a lot of structures in the knee, and if you are having weight balance it could be an unstable knee from a ligament a cruciate, meniscus or another structure tear that is making the knee wobbly (unstable)

Yes you should see a doctor. A bruise to the leg should not cause loss of balance. Balance is neurological so a loss represents a neuro problem. And yes, I am a Dr. BTW
