is there a doctor in the house?

i think i broke my foot.  maybe.  or i'm just being a giant wuss.

i just got back from playing in three soccer games tonight and my right foot hurts like the dickens.  i took off my socks and i see the 2nd and 3rd toes have dark bruises near the knuckle, and they hurt when i touch them.  i also have lighter bruise spots below the 3rd and 4th toes (more on the top of the foot, but near the toe). 

it hurts when i stand on it.  i'm a total gimp.  icy hot worked decently on it when i put it on my foot before the second game, but must have worn off.

i'd post a picture, but i can't move.  all that is moving is my fingers.  and even that hurts.

the morning after update:  i can stand on it just fine, as long as i don't put any pressure on the outside of the foot.  walking sucks.  anytime my toes bend to take a stride, it hurts.

p.s.  the good news is that my teams managed to win all 3 games.

Ouch! Whatever it is, it does not sound like fun. Even if it isn't broken, please see a doctor to get it checked. Hope that you get better soon, and please let us know how it turns out. 12/4/2007 8:21 AM | Michael Mahler

Remember that bruise you had a week after you hurt it in another soccer game? Maybe this is from a week ago.

In all seriousness, please feel better. 12/4/2007 2:59 PM | Tam

You are not a wuss.
Did you get it checked out?
Hope it is on the mend now. 12/6/2007 6:50 AM | toni
