What Causes Bruise And Swelling On Shin Due To Hitting?
I was doing box jumps in my crossfit class and my shin hit the box. The first week was very painful but it started getting better. It s been 3 weeks and I still have slight bruising and it s still a bit swollen (quarter sized). Should I get it checked out?
