    Ummm chilblains?

    Do you think you may have stepped on something that's gone through your foot?

    Is your foot swollen?? WHen my horse stood on my foot and broke it / fractured it my foot was swollen and dark black...

    I would get to the docs before it gets any worse - at least then you will know whats going on even if it is just a case of wait till it gets better.

    Good luck and let us know how you go!

    Definitely go to the Drs hun. No point hanging around in pain, waiting to see what happens, only to find that you could have done something to help it.

    Good luck

    It's really hard looking after my DD when I'm like this!!!

    It's not swollen. It's not visibly bruised either but FEELS bruised. very bruised as if a horse stood on it!!!!

    I'm ringing GP now to see if I can get in.

    Could it be a bone spur?

    Lulu - whats Chilbains??

    And my feet aren't cold i'm wearing my ugg boots so its not from being cold.... its only in one foot.

    I got an appointment with a Podiatrist today and he said it appears i've strained my "Anterior Talo fibular Ligament" (ATF LIgament)! I have no idea how!!! it does feel like a sprain thats for sure.He said sometimes people do that and they don't even realise they have done it til the next day... maybe happened when my foot was warm then once it's gone cold in the weather the pain has appeared. Weird..... anyway he strapped it for me and should be good within a few days. He couldn't really explain why the pain was worse today than 5 days ago though when it started.... I have to go back Weds if still no good... and then he'll do x rays etc.

    My DH has ligament pain in his foot - it has gotten worse over time (silly dr he saw first gave him bruise cream) - it's much more painful just after he has been sitting or resting and then gets up onto it. It's getting better now it's strapped & he has some exercises to do. So I thought ligament pain straight away. I hope it gets better quickly!!
