When should I suspect that my foot has a hairline fracture?!
Question: I had and x-ray at the ER and they found no break. However, I am still finding it difficult to stand or walk. It hurts like holy heck.

it is not uncommon for a hairline fracture to not be seen on an initial xray. It can been seen on subsequent ones days later due to calcium buildup. I would suggest returning to the ER, or your Dr. for another xray.
go get another xray somewhere else because i know those hurt like hell....but the only thing they will do is give u an air shoe...they dont wrap it..so just stay off of it
Your feet often feel as if they can be broken when you think you have broken it. but get a second opinion! BUT as I say, your feet usually hurt when you hurt it then stand on it, your feet hold your body weight so it has lots of pressure on it.
