I had fallen off my mountain bike from 12ft in the air and landed on my head, ribs and hip, I couldn't breath for over a minute from being winded.
I went to A&E to see if I had broken anything.
The doctor wasn't very helpful. He seemed to not take me seriously even though I was in a lot of pain. After my X-ray I was seen by him again, he said nothing was broken and to take pain killers and then turned his back to me which I thought was rude. I wasn't given any pain relief or advice from him and I'm still in pain.
This has happened to me before from the same A&E. the other time I was told nothing was dislocated to then be asked to come in 2 weeks later for them to tell me I had semi dislocated my shoulder.
I am still getting physiotherapy from this incident 3 years later.
