Does this sound like I sprained my foot?

Question

I fell down some stairs today ('cause I'm so graceful) and my foot hurts when I bend my toes downward. No pain if I flex them toward me or just walk, but when I flex them downward there's a pain from my toes to the top of my foot...

I don't particularly care to see a doctor about something that seems so mild... would there even be cause to? Has anyone experienced pain like this? Should I just ice it, elevate it, and get on with my life?

It's slightly swollen, not by much, though.

sorry, I lied... it does hurt a little to flex my toes the other direction.

Answer 1

no it sounds more to me that you have broken a toe in the fall
