So my friend bet me that I wouldn't jump off the roof and I did. The landing didn't huirt so much originally but my leg has this huge bump on it and it is purple and really hurts espicially when I touch it. My parents will kill me if they find out that I broke my leg because we can't afford any more medical bills because of my dad having expensive lug cancer treatments.
What should I do abut my leg so that my parents wont find out? I can barley walk.

You need to see a doctor, regardless of cost. If your leg is broken and you don't get treatment, it will bother you for the rest of your life. Sorry to let you down, but you really need to get it checked!

first off jumping off a roof not too brilliant! and look i no u dont want to run up the medical bills but look if u hava broken leg and don't get it treated it cause cause problems for u later on in life so just bite the bullets and tell ur parents that u were dumb and jumped off a roof and now ur leg could possible be broken. they will b pissed but its that safest thing for u to do

You have got to go see a Doctor! As a parent of 3 kids I would be more concerned about your leg being taken care of first. Then after I knew that you were ok we would have a nice little chat about what you did. But your health comes first.

Are you a troll or for real? If you're for real go to the emergency room NOW! Your leg could get a major infection if left untreated. Then they'll just cut it off if you're still alive. If your dad has insurance it'll cover it. If not then you'll fill out some forms at the hospital at get free treatment.

Please, please tell your parents and get to a doctor! I understand about the bills but look at it this way. If your leg is broken, which it very likely is, and you don't get prompt treatment, it's going to cause a lot, lot more to fix than if you go now. Second, if you wait you could end up with a crippled leg that would tourture you the rest of your life, if you don't die of some infection first. So go, please!

Be sure to ice it and elevate your leg- to decrease swelling. Otherwise if it hurts to walk it's probably broken and you need to get it set and get some cruches and stay off of it. More then likely its not a simple break because if it would have broke it would have impacted and they may have to pull it back into place.good luck.

Welcome to the real world, this is where almost everything we do costs us something. I think you broke it, and there's no way around treatment. Unless, of course, you want to be a cripple all your life. Man, I feel for you. This isn't gonna be fun at all. Wish I could do something for ya, except type.

I am going to tell you what everybody else has told you! Tell your parents and get your young b***t to a doctor. Broke or fractured either way you need to see a doctor. And don't a**s around either.

its better to get it taken care of and risk the anger of your parents then to try and fix it yourself. You may have a fracture or worse.
