Yes, you have to make sure it's set and healed right, otherwise it could grow back crooked and you'll have to walk with a cane for the rest of your life, I've seen it happen before.

You broke it? It is swollen and not operational? Oh by all means you need to see a doctor. It needs to be set or possibly even pinned as well. Compound fracture or no? Compound meaning the break has gone through the skin and you can see it-if so, call the ambulance because you could suffer a long list of serious problems from that which include infection and gangrene -as in goodby to the leg or part of it, or even death. IF YOU KNOW it is broken and it is not compound you still need to worry about infections, clots that kill, being crippled later in life, getting it set, and a myriad of things....not to mention that any time you break a bone you could go into shock and shock kills. That means get to a hnspital ER ASAP. If it hurts alot, is swollen and probably is not broken, you STILLneed to see a doctor. You could be wrong and still have a fracture -a hairline one or other, or it may be a bruised muscle or injured tendon. Don't use your leg-use your head, call for a ride to the hospital now.

Yes, you definitely should.. Do you want to live with a crooked leg or a chance of infection?

No. Save the trip to the doctor for when you break your neck.
I know you can do it. Don't let me down now.

No. Be sure to try to walk on it as much as you possibly can. Also, hit it with a hammer often.
