Yeah. I basically got told off for finishing the ride. It's a lot more swollen than it was, but the x-rays showed that nothing was broken (Bar my will to live during the 5 hours in A&E). I've been given some antibiotics and a tetanus shot and told to take pain killers as and when needed.
In reality, I think it'll be alright in a day or seven, I can't put any weight on my leg yet as it's feels like the joint is pulling in all the wrong places but I think that is likely due to the swelling impeeding the movement rather than anything else more sinister.
Still. At least I have people at work bringing me cups of coffee ;]
