Answer #1

OUCH!!

I’ve done that before- not cool! Very painful, in fact.

Hmm.. I’m no doctor but speaking from experience… mine was just sprained (even though I thought it was broken). Certainly felt like it was broken. I guess you’ll have to wait it out and see how it feels in a few days or go to your doc and have him take a look.

Right now all you want is for the pain to go away… I know.. hang in there!

Answer #2

If I were you I would go to the doctor because it can be hard to tell whether it’s broken or just sprained. You don’t want to keep walking on it because you want to let it heal and make sure it heals right.
