I dropped a computer tower on my foot, on top yesterday. Today it is purple on the inside near bottom and swelled up on top and inside side. It is not so painful, but hurts when I lift my big toe and is swelled totally over all top of foot. Toes swollen somewhat, not much to speak of. soak in salt water warm and prop it up b. What to do? Don t want to go to dr because I lost my ins of 37 yrs and won t have any till 32 more days. If I don t move my toes it really don,t hurt much.
