My foot is so broken

Some asshole at the bar last night pulled his chair in and slammed it right down on the bridge of my right foot. it hurts like a bitch and i have to hop around on my left foot, needless to say walking is out of the question.

!!!!!!!!!!!!! fucking OW!

I tackled someone hard in soccer earlier today in the same spot. It hurts like a bitch still. I have no idea what to do with it. Its probly broken. Nothing that 12 beers wont fix.

a fracture is just a crack in your bone (doesnt break all da way)

a broken bone is completely split.

It's a good sign if there isn't too much swelling. Still, if you can't put weight on it you should probably see a doctor about it. I might give it a day or two to see if there's any improvement, but that's more of a personal preference.

Either way, I suggest RICE (rest, ice, compression e.g. ace bandage, elevation) until you can get in to see a doctor. It will also speed up the healing process if the injury is not actually a break.

what he said ^^^
fractures heal pretty quickly without being set(1-2 weeks) while a broken bone is set, and takes alot longer.(4-6)

I've torn the arch before, it is terribly painful.

I stubbed my big toe and it hurt too.

Posted by torontotrance on Jul-11-2004 02:37:

I nearly my big toe by stubbing it, became three times the normal size due to the swelling, I hate clubs because you always have idiots stomping on your feet, that's where most of my injuries have occured.
