didn't have any big trouble

Fortunately he wore an helmet, so he just got hurt on his knee and didn't have any big trouble.

Hi,
Does the above sound good, especially the bolded part? Is it better to reword it as the following? Thanks.

Fortunately he wore an helmet, so he was only hurt on his knee and it wasn't serious.
