Getting lost!  What wonderful advice.  Edmund hesitated for a moment, considering if he should do just that.  The constable could move his leg, but it seemed to hurt quite a bit, and scared of doctors.  Edmund could relate.

He shook his head once.  "Can you roll up your pant leg?  No doctors, just let me see it.  Ehm - please?"

Edmund probably should not have been ordering the constable around like he wasn't still struggling to breathe.  He lowered himself some, trying to show the man his intentions were true - as true as a would be criminals, at the very least.
