Is my foot broken? it happened about 30 minutes ago while i was working out....

Question

I was working out and something got stuck in the pulley, so i got on the seat part, to check it out cause its pretty high up, then i couldnt get it untangled so i was stepping off backwards and then i slipped a little bit and fell about 3 feet onto a metal bar with my left foot on the side, there is a bump the size of a golf ball next to my ankle and is a reddish purple, my actual foot isnt swollen when i compare it to my other foot, but its lookin a little puffy, and then i felt the swollen foot and there were like 3 or 4 lines, veins i think, that are huge and i cant feel those on my other foot, and the swollen one is purple-ish too, i just compared my feet together side to side and the swollen one is like a half an inch or an inch longer, i dont know if that has something to do with this, but ive never really payed attention to it before

anyway does my foot sound broken or sprained or wat

Answer 1

one foot is always about half a size larger than the other in everybody. normally your dominant foot. if it was broken you wouldn't be able to type this, seeing as your foot has about 3 or 4 bones down the length of it. if you can feel the veins pounding, its just a bad bump. keep blood moving to it and it'll get better.

Answer 2

I would go and and get it checked out, got to A&E or your doctor, try not to put any weight on it until then.  Take care.
