My foot

[Mrs Behavin]

I seriously think I broke my foot! I slipped outside @ noon or so and the top of my foot is swollen twice the size and I cannot walk on it. I was hoping that with time it would ease up but it still hurts pretty bad. Im debating on whether or not I need to go to the stinkin ER to have it looked at. God I dont want to but it hurts really bad!:mad

kiddo, that sucks, you already spend enough time in the ER. keep it elevated and go get it checked out

I agree better to be safe than sorry. Here let me kiss the ouchey and put a bandaid on it.

*hugs*

 

[Mrs Behavin]

So um do you guys think its possible that I can drive with my left foot? If so I will drive myself there. Ive just never driven with that foot before

 

[CRZY72004]

how far is the ER

 

[sundvlfn88]

That really hurts, I have been there done that. I feel for you. I hope it is just a sprain or something like that. Get well.

 

[GuesSAngel]

well normally people don't drive with their left foot...unless you have stick so i would think it would be okay. Many years ago my mom broke her foot and had to drive to herself to the hospital. She was in A LOT of pain. I was with her, but couldn't drive b/c I was too young.

I'd say so, because I've done it before. Just be careful! I hope you feel better Amy! -hugs-

Better safe than sorry.

I've drove with my left foot once when I broke my right ankle. It actually got harder as it went and truthfully it wasn't all that bad pain wise. Just kind of annoyance you have to deal with until you finally stop. Hope everything works out for you.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

I just got back home. They said I broke 4 metatarsals and put me in a post op boot. They said I dont need any kind of surgery cause the bone is nondisplaced. So thats a good thing, thank god!

 

[GraceAbounds]

Ouch! Good thing you decided to go. How long will it take to heal? Hope they gave you something for the pain and are feeling a bit better.

 

[Maritxu]

Good you went. I hope it heals soon and well. *hugs*

 

[Mrs Behavin]

Im suppose to call Mon to go see an orthopaedic dr. My foot is about the size of a watermelon and its throbbing They gave me some pain pills and anti-inflammatory pills but I didnt sleep at all last night.

 

[Maritxu]

that sucks Amy, hope it gets better soon

I'm so sorry to hear that. It sounds like couch city for you today. Are you suppose to keep it elevated and what not? Does heat or cold help. I hope the pain lets up so you can get some much needed rest.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

Ive been keeping it elevated with ice on it. Ice seems to make it go numb where I dont really feel it.
I have to say that at least work was understandable and got someone to work for me tonight, Sun night, and Mon night. That was a HUGE help.

 

[AUDRAA]

ouch girl hope youre feeling better soon

 

[Eridanus]

I'm sorry to read about your mishap. I'm relieved that you ended up getting some medical attention. I hope the pain settles, and becomes bearable, and the healing process is rapid.

I also hope that you have someone taking care of you.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

Thanks everyone for yalls well wishes! I appreciate all of them.I just took a picture of my feet together so you could see the comparison (even though alot of the swelling has gone down) but for some reason OTz isnt letting me post pics today.
