I got home and my thigh was a little sore and I had a scab where I was hit. I didn't think anything had gone through, but I checked my pants today (two layers) and both had a .020" ish hole in them in the same corresponding spot where I was hit. The spot on my leg is a little raised but there is no bruising or pain. I dug around a bit with my knife so it doesn't feel spectacular right now….

    Do I need to go to the hospital? That's not really my scene but i'd be willing to go iif i've got something in my leg that needs to come out and I can't do it myself. Anyway, this may be a totally obvious answer but I've never had this happen before so I hope to seek the collective wisdom of my peers.

    Thanks!
    Just drink lot's of whisky, and dig around some more. Can't find anything don't worry about it, carry on......

    (My advice is not to be considered medical, in any way shape or form. I'm not a doc, just watched lot's of western growing up.)
