English term or phrase: It was tender to the touch
It was tender to the touch, but he was reassured when he could move it: it was not broken.

nyeri bila disentuh
Explanation:
tender di sini bukan empuk maupun lembut, tapi nyeri. Konteksnya cedera, jelas dari kalimat seterusnya "but he was reassured when he could move it: it was not broken."
Dalam dokumen kedokteran ada istilah "nyeri tekan", tapi mumpung di sini sudah dikatakan "to the touch", ya nyeri saja.
Kalimat "tender to the touch" harus dibaca sebagai kesatuan yang mengacu pada suatu kondisi cedera.
