A broken leg is very difficult to walk on although some people have a high threshold of pain!. When I fell i tried to get up and turned over my big toe twice, By the time I got from the backyard to the house, my foot was so swollen I could not even wear shoes!. I had to use a cane; and each step was painful!.Now I know what it means to put your best foot forward!.!. The doctor said it was not broken but wanted to put me in Simpson boot to relieve the pressure and swelling!. What I realized later was that I had a hairline fracture!. The idea of fracture is broken; but some doctors see 'degrees' of broken!.They did not want to give me time off from work!.For three months I could not wear shoes!. Every time I went back to the doctor they wanted to put me in Simpson boot!. Go to the doctor and get an xray so that you will know if it is a sprain or your foot is broken!. More than ten years later I have a 'mound' on the area[instep] and have to wear a size larger on my left foot!. Please go for help and at least find the peace of knowing the truth about your injury!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
