    Painful and swollen foot
    A little over 9 weeks ago I somehow fell on our front deck and I thought I had twisted my ankle but as time passed the pain and swelling has gotten much worse. The right top side of my foot and the area around my little toe are kind of red and bruised. The swelling stretches the skin so tight I feel like it's going to crack. I haven't seen a doctor so I don't know what's causing this and I'm beginning to think there might be something seriously wrong. I'm wearing an Ace bandage but it's still hurting and swollen.

    Does anyone have any idea of what might be causing this?

    We can't diagnose you over the internet. Sounds like you might need x-rays in order to determine what's going on. Go to your doctor.

    Good luck.
