Posts  All Forums:Forum Nav:  possible fractured foot but no
bruising or swelling?  post #1 of 4 Thread Starter  DH and i
were moving the kids bookshelf into the house and i sort of
kicked/dropped it on the top of my foot. now i'm not the type of
person to whimper in pain but i was yepling and whining for
about 10mins while i iced it. once it got pretty numb from the
ice i went to the store to get something for dinner. got back
and was cooking when i stepped a little funny and felt a crackle
and it started hurting again. after dinner i could barely walk
and can't put any weight on it unless i roll my foot out and
avoid the big toe. the weird thing is there's no bruising except
a red mark where the corner of the shelf hit and barely any
swelling. i can't touch the spot without a shooting pain going
up my leg and into my toe. i'm going to sleep on it and see how
it's looking in the morning.
