actually, i'd recommend going to the e.r. first. you might have fractured your metatarsals.

ice it first. then go to e.r. see what doctor says. it's load-bearing so i suggest you baby it.

will do sir,thanks but actually today the swelling is almost gone so is it still advisable to go and see a doctor?
could i train within the week or have it rested?

in my opinion, if it happened to me, i would go. after tearing my ankle and dislocating my knee, i know what an injury to a load bearing structure is and how it is difficult if it becomes chronic. get a doctor's ok to train. that's all.

thank you sir
will go this weekend for a check up
appreaciate the advice

Broken bones really hurt, but if you have been training a long time your feet may be so tough you cant feel it anymore. X-rays are cheep (500 P). If the swelling is already gone, you are probably OK.

Were you sparing with no pads? Do your shin guards cover your feet?

ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS REMEMBER THIS


R - Rest
C - Cold compress
E - Elevate

My right foot has a crack from kicking an elbow too. Thing is, it always happens to me. The Doctor at the Ortho hospital in Banawe gave me the same advice Supplement_Hub mentioned:

R - Rest
C - Cold compress
E - Elevate

Don't wrap it without seeing the Doctor because sometimes we wrap it the wrong way, lalong bumubuka yung crack. Dapat makita muna sa x-ray.
