[|Human|] in april during track practice, my foot had a sharp pain after practicing a throwing technique technique repeatedly. there was no swelling and it hurt to wear shoes or jump on it. the season ended and i took about a month off of athletic activities. still the pain persisted although it felt like a bruise to touch. then i started playing a different sport because the pain had lessened and i had become used to it, it felt like a dull throbbing on the outside of my foot but only when my foot was squeezed or bent laterally. (if stood on rock, or something) i got my foot stepped on in a game and it bruised for a while but now it throbs when I ve been on it too long. however, running, walking and playing soccer doesn t irritate it. its the outside of my left foot, just underneath my pinky toe and fourth toe. could i be doing sports with a broken foot and it not be bothering me all that much? i have a high pain tolerance, so im not sure.
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for using this site. I have studied your case and I think that you might be having stress fracture of the toe. These are not very painful but just causes discomfort. I would recommend you to get x-ray of the foot to confirm the diagnosis. If x-ray is normal than you should get MRI of the foot as some time these fractures can be missed on x-ray. You will need calcifying therapy and splinting. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
