I had a pretty gnarly crash on my mountain bike today. Basically, the front wheel washed out, I took a handle bar end in my lower abdomen-groin, then face planted, breaking my helmet, glasses, and my nose. I don't want to go to the emergency room, because I feel fine, and I already snapped my nose back into place, but everyone keeps telling me I should go.
Update-
Thanks for the comments. I never made it to the ER. I was actually feeling pretty good last night, and fine today. My nose is still slightly swelled on one side and a little black and blue near my eye. The area that I hit with the handle bar was near the fold of my leg below the hair line (sorry if that's too much info) on the left side. Although it was pretty swelled up last night, the swelling was gone this morning, and I was left with a pretty good bruise. Hopefully, I didn't do any internal damage.
