This injury is typical of midfoot bones and ligament tears called Lisfrancs fracture with a car If minor grade of injury can be missed in early days on x-rays. Please do not waste time and meet an orthopaedic surgeon interested in foot and ankle surgery and take his guidance . Both CT Scan and MRI scan would be helpful in diagnosis and management

This needs to be examined to evaluate the source of pain, one likely differential diagnosis is Mortons Neuroma due to the trauma and irritation of the nerve between 3 and 4th toe.
