I did a split and heard something crack. Do you think i dislocatted my femur?

I think i went down too fast.its been 3 months now and i'm still experiencing pain.
Answer:
Oh honey, nothing to be scared over. If you dislocated your leg from your hip, you wouldn't be able to walk or stand. I did the same thing when I was younger, so I know exactly what you are talking about. Did you drop into the splits too fast? Did you force yourself down? Did you warm up properly? If not, it's quite possible you have done some muscle damage. I never saw a doc for it and it went away in time. If it is bothersome to you, go check with your doc. Please be careful!
Moron. If you had, you would not be able to walk.
Never take a chnace, if it aches badly, get it checked by a doc as soon as possible honey!
I think you would have known if you dislocated your femur because you would have been in enough pain to go to an ER. If it's bothering you, go to the doctor because I think you've ruled out the posibility of it going away on its own.
If it still hurts then yea go see a doc a.s.a.p
Good luck!
=D
No, because if that had been the case, you would not be able to walk. If it is still painful to walk or bear weight, I would go see a doctor. If money is a concern and you wanted to treat yourself, a course of anti-inflammatories (ibuprofen or naproxen-available over the counter) for no more than two weeks with gentle stretching to get back full range of motion. Regardless of the injury, you should know that even relatively minor injuries that go untreated can and do lead to early arthritis and other limitations somewhere down the line.
