Fell down the stairs earlier...

[Pinkjenny]

I miscalculated the stairs earlier carrying ds, and in my effort to not drop him, fell with my full weight on the ball of my left foot.

It's not massively swollen or red, but I can't put my full weight on it. Do I just wait and see how it is tomorrow? Weirdly, the pain is worse if I stay off it for any period of time.

I'd give it until tomorrow, but probably try not to change what I was doing in the meantime, IYSWIM. It's quite easy to break bones in your foot (bitter voice of experience) but it's not always necessary to do anything about it.

Sounds reasonable. It's so bloody sore

You have my sympathy. I had an altercation with a baby gate at new year, I wore flat, wide boots until March....

You could wait but it may be a good idea to get an opinion in A&E. Wish you better soon.

Thanks for the sympathy, it helps
