Ok my son was riding his dirt bike and yes ofcorse all the gear to go with it. helmet,boots,chest protector,exct…anyway he competes in races so he was getting ready for the next race just to get pratice in at a local trail that we go to everyweekend, well he decided to put out a 3' bike ramp and jump it mind. you he is 7. awesome rider but still 7.so before i could explain to him and how to do it he had started to go for it but full throtal-jumped it got about 6 feet of air, then flipped over and over and over again with the bike landing on top of him in the end.at first he was crying call 911 we did not move him so we waited then we cut his clothes off to see the injurys . his groin got a pretty bad blow, and he's brused up .he is complaing that his tail bone hurts.he is able to walk but slowly . he is terrified of the hospital or i would take him. he is alert but seem to have the chills, just wondering if anyone knows signs i should look for when i can't see the injury-thanks mom
Get him to the hospital!! I'd call 911 if your not close to hospital. He could be showing s/s of shock, and the bad thing is kids compensate so well for shock thats it often overlooked early. Then they crash and it's too late. Scared or not he needs to be checked for internal bleeding!
