I think it is the bone of my big toe or a bone attached to my big toe!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

hmmm!. it's a difficult question!. As some of the other replies have said, you need to use ice and try to keep it elevated!. If you can't put any weight on it then chances are something has happened!. You could have slightly moved one of the little bones in your foot which could explain the lack of swelling!. You should probably get yoursepf checked out by a doctor - it may turn out that it's just bruised!. Better safe rather than sorry though, if you leave it then it could become a big (and very expensive) problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well it could be a hairline fracture!.!.!.!.!.as those don't really swell or bruise!. It is best to get an xray to find out for sure!!!!!

When in doubt always ice!!!! 15 minutes on 30 off for as long as you can!!!!!

How did you hurt your foot like action of it!?!?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you cant move it or put a lot of pressure on it!. Honestly it is better to get it checked out!. You can make payments if you have to!. At least get some type of ACE wrap to put on it and try to keep off of it as much as possible!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
