Is my foot broken, why does it hurt so much?

Question

i had a cramp in my foot (toes) on tuesday night and just slept through that. yesterday my whole foot, ankle and a bit po my leg were in the most awful pain & todays the same.

it feels like ma foot is going to just fall off at me ankle, and the pain is like a line from my toe all up to my ankle n ma leg.

would you say its broken, how can i make it go away???

thanks

Answer 1

Can u walk on it at all? If you can, then it's most likely NOT broken...fractured bones are normally very painful. It may be that you have trapped a nerve or possibly pulled a ligament, although ligament less likely if you don't remember injuring yourself! I would suggest going to see a doctor, and until then, rest it as much as possible...ice and elevate to relieve any swelling!

Hope it heals soon!

Answer 2

well i wouldn't be able to tell you if it's broken or not but you should probably go get an xray. in the mean time keep it elevated, use ice, and wrap it with an ace bandage but not to tight

Answer 3

You need to see your GP who will arrange a possible x-ray to determine. Have you injured your foot in any way? A foot doesn't just break for no reason!
