Possible broken foot

2018-01-28 03:29:25
I finished work, walked to the car and there was a high curb that I hopped on with my right foot, my foot wasn't fully on the curb so I landed on the side of my foot and collapsed to the ground, I was in so much pain I actually cried and squirmed all the way home! Haven't gone to the hospital yet but I don't want too if I don't need too. This happened about 23 hours ago.

Your history suggests high energy trauma. Try applying Ice packs. Keep affected limb elevated. Medications like Enzomac will help in swelling. Persistent pain and swelling can be due to either fracture or ligament sprains.
Next Steps
Get x-rays done and take proper treatment.
Health Tips
Do not ignore injury.
