Olympian Gus Kenworthy posted videos of a massive blood-filled bump on his hip — after also breaking his thumb

Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy has had a rough couple of days at the Winter Olympics: He broke his thumb and fell hard during practice sessions, causing a large blood-filled lump to form on his hip. On his Instagram story Friday, Kenworthy shared video of the bump before doctors drained it.

“I am in athlete medical. Yesterday I broke my thumb a little bit and today I fell on my hip,” Kenworthy said in a video posted to his story. “I have a massive hematoma and I’m about to get it drained and you guys are coming along to watch.”
