I m having pain on the top, outer part of my left foot, with some localized swelling. I have soaked it, elevated it, and iced it this afternoon, and the pain and swelling are still present. I am able to walk on my heels across the room, but I can t really put all my weight on that left foot to walk on the ball of my foot. I have been hobbling around today, only putting weight on the heel and inside of the foot. I m wondering if I ve sort of sprained it, or if there is the possibility of a fracture. I am 62, in good health, and don t know how I injured this foot.
