If you have a broken hip, you will definitely know immediately. Firstly, you will not be able to walk. Secondly, there will be a large amount of swelling in your hip area. The pelvis is one of the strong bones in your body, and if you break it, it will be extremely painful. You will need to have medical attention as soon as possible. If you do injur yourself and believe your hip is broken, be sure to lie still and wait for medical attention to arrive.
