Obviously if I'd broken anything, had any major grazes, bruising I'd

so for others that I've told about it - they want to see blood and

A couple of years ago I had a much more minor bingle than you - I
avoided the car and fell off, no real impact with the car. Didn't
seem to have any injuries except grazes.

HOWEVER, I found out a week later (from an x-ray) that I had a broken
scaphoid bone (in the wrist). Needed 6 weeks in plaster and 6 more in
a brace. If this injury isn't picked up, the bone tends to die and
cause arthritis etc...

So, definitely get yourself checked out properly!!
