| broken bone? YT nurses :) Is it possible for me to have broken a bone in my foot (NO IDEA how) but for it not to hurt when i'm not on it. It is almost excruciating when I walk on it but when i'm sitting there is a mild pain but nothing unbearable... I feel like i live at my doctors and don't want to go AGAIN ... anyone have any thoughts what it could be. It started suddenly one day... and all i can think of is i'm wearing new Birkenstock shoes.. but i got them like months ago and thus far.. no issues... any help is great... i don't want to go to the doctors if it is nothing and will go away.. it's been here for a bout 4 days... and is getting worse but i haven't had any trauma to the foot... |

| Well I'm not a nurse, but what part of your foot hurts? I'm wondering if you could have a or be forming a bunion. I had foot surgery a year ago and the pain when I walked kept getting more and more intense. It was ok when I wasn't on my feet.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Yep - when I broke my toe, it really only hurt when I was on it; and of course, there is nothing you can do for a toe. But you don't recall any trauma? Gosh it could be anything - a calcification, spur, bursitis, tendinitis. Gout can cause terrible foot pain...

| Hmm, doesn't sound like a bunion. I would suggest going to a podiatrist or Orthopedic and having it checked out since it's hurting you that much. There are so many things it could be with your feet!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I think FLTink is an Orthopedic nurse, I wonder if she's on. Gosh, hon - I think you may need an x-ray . It may not be from a trauma, but it could be from something else. This is the last thing you need, huh???!!!

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | Every once in a while I get that pain on the bone behind my toes too. It goes from my baby toe to my middle toe. It's not too bad for me (most of the time) but I'm also interested to know.

| Do you mean in the forefoot? Sounds like it could be a stress fracture to me. I suggest going to a podiatrist. I had a stress fracture a couple of years ago. It came on after wearing new shoes. I had to wear a cast boot for several weeks until it healed. Just be aware that 50% of all stress fractures don't show up on x-rays. My stress fracture was the start of many unrelated foot problems. My podiatrist has become one of my best friends unfortunately! And most of what they do does not hurt. BTW, I am an RN.

| I had a very similar pain a couple months ago. It ended up being a ligament that was swollen. When I wasn't on my foot it was only a mild discomfort but I couldn't walk at all. It was a horrible pain. The pain only lasted about a couple weeks, but it was HORRIBLE. I would suggest that you go to the doctor and get it checked out though because it may be something else. I hope you feel better soon Foot pain is perhaps one of the most annoying pains. Hope you feel better

| Marcia Danielle, I'm Paula Danielle!!! Twalla likes to go with the Diane! I think it's a southern thing!! I've broken a bone in the top of my foot before while jumping a weight rope. My coach taped it up and I finished practice (didn't know it was broken). Sounds like you need an xray, sister. At least you'll know for sure if there is a fracture.
