I need a cure.
 

I've got in tonight and have discovered that I've somehow hurt my foot. Well it's not my foot, it just above it. You know the way you have your foot, and there is a bone just above it.

The bone that leads from below the bottom end of that picture up until your big toe (no that is not my foot in the picture). Well that anyway, it is killing me. I'm in real pain here. I don't think we've got any painkillers cos I've already looked. Is there something else I can take to kill the pain :(

I was plannin on posting this in the Haus, the new version of it anyway, but they are being weird and just posting gifs in there.

It probably just be a strained muscle or something which can randomly happen, maybe if you steep it in warm water it might relax the muscle and ease the pain a bit. Did you drop anything on it or bang it anywhere?

Dunno, probably. Warm water = effort.

I'm going to bed, if its still hurtin in the morning I'm blaming you Jessica

:bawling:

Does anyone know the name of the bone?

It is your metatarsal.

All is ok then. It is an honor to have possibly broken the same bone as David Beckham

You have only bruised it

you must man up

It is broken.

I must go the hospital first thing in the morning

If you can move your toe then the bone is not broken.

It is sprained then

It is bruised and the doctor will just say " you came all the way here and wasted by time for a small bruise like that! you make me sick " then ban you from all hospitals across the country

Strain, Sprain, torn ligament, bruise or fracture - Treatment is the same till you get it checked out by a doc.

RICE

Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.

Being able to move a bone is not a good indicator of not having a fracture. People can often move fractured bones, it just hurts a little more.

Pain is good for you, lets you know your still alive.

:laugh2:

And you should have got here sooner Shasown, it could have been an emergency.

Rice... What do I do? Just stick my foot in a bowl of rice?

Ice is cold, I'm not going near that.

lol.

Why would you put your foot in a bowl of rice?

Ice would be good.

Your foot is sexy btw.

I could come over and suck it. May relieve the pain. mwahahahah

Rice ya numpty =

Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation

Not only will the ice help relieve pain it will also help reduce swelling, if you cant hack having a bit of ice next to your skin use a tea towel or such like to hold a bag of frozen veg etc over the area

That is Novo's foot in the picture

But you're the one with the foot problem so why you posting pictures of his foot, and more importantly why was you with him to do it?

I didn't get that rice thing either. I thought Shasown was just talking about rice as in curry/rice.

That foot looks in good condition

It looks like it is infected. It is going blue.

Must be smithy's foot then

Seek medical help ASAP and for who ever foot that it is they should be proud it's not a bad looking foot.
