Bruising on sides of big toe with photos

A couple of days ago I was in a hurry to get home so I was walking very fast close to jogging. When I got in the house after 5 mins I felt a strong pain on my right big toe but just ignored it. After an hour I've noticed when I walk the big toe feels swollen so I checked it and noticed bruising on the left outer side of big toe which I found bizarre as I didn't stub my foot. Went for a short hike today and noticed that bruising has now appeared on the same big toe but in the other side. It's not painful just bizarre as never had it before. Photos attached (excuse my toes!) - has anyone had this before? Blush

Probably just a popped vein.

What sort of shoes were you wearing?

Hmm you may need that xraying. Is it still painful?

What sort of shoes were you wearing?
The first time it happened two days ago I was wearing Adidas trainers. When it appeared on the other side today I was wearing thick hiking shoes.

No it doesn't hurt anymore even when I press on it, odd! It was only painful when the first one on the left side appeared.
