That sounds pretty bad al. Good thing you were treated immediately. I had a similar thing happen to me (well, sort of).
I tried to ride a skateboard back when I was about 8 or so.
Fell off and landed on my face, scraping the skin off the left half of my face. I missed the Coca Cola factory tour the following day. Luckily no permanent scarring. Going to that factory is still on my To Do list...

Lol. Had something like that as well.
I was about 7 years old I think, and me and my friends made a ramp to ride over on our bikes.
Needles to say, 7 year olds usually don't have enough insight to build a very strong ramp. We pretty much put a piece of plywood on bricks.
Some friends hit it and it all went pretty smoothly. Then, when I was pretty much at the top of it, the bricks collapsed, I fell with my momentum carrying me forward and I scraped my nose on the ground for a meter or two.
I looked like a clown for the next couple of weeks.
Anyway, glad that you're ok, Al.
