is my foot broken

[aaami]

hello,

my feet is swollen. i was playing catch with my niece and accidently kicked a pole.  it didnt hurt much and the pain was bearable at first and i can pretty much walk, limping of course. but now the swollen gets bigger (normal color, it didnt get purple-ish) and it really hurts just to walk.  i can wiggle my toes a liltle bit but not as much as the other foot. should i go to the clinic to get it check?

Duh! Of course you should go and get it checked. It may be a blood clot or a broken foot!

go to get it checked definately - but it sounds like you may have bruised the bone or just damaged your tendons or ligaments. if you had broke it there would be no movement and you wouldnt be able to handle the pain. but definately get it checked

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Yes, please go to the clinic to get this checked. Either it is a bad sprain or a fracture. It will need some sort of immobilization, X-rays, and anti-inflammatory. Apply ice pack to reduce the swelling. Take care!
