If you are in this much pain you shouldnt be going to school!. Your doctor should have prescribed you some appropriate painkillers anyway!. If it only hurts when you walk on it you could get some crutches to get yourself around at school without overdoing it!.
The best thing to do with painkillers is to start with 'lower levels' of painkillers and work your way up!. The best painkiller to start with would be a couple of paracetamol every 4 hours!. So long as you take them regularly the pain should be managed quite well!. If this isnt working it's best you go to the doctor to discuss better pain management!.
If none of the above is possible, then it should be fine to take the percocet as per instructions!. If you've had it before you would know about the potential side affects drowsiness, nausea etc!. If you personally feel comfortable taking this to help with the pain, do so!. Dont be afraid to just go home if the pain is too much, you dont want to overdo it and damage your foot!.

Skip the percoset - it will dull your brain when you most need to be alert!. Go to your local thrift store and buy a pair of crutches, or a cane!.
Take the percoset when you get home from school!. Hope you feel better soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
