So today I was cooking and burnt my hand. I jumped and suddenly my second toe on my left foot was cramped up. So yay, pain on two extremities! But the toe pain didn't stop. I went to work, figuring it was a muscle cramp (I'll get those in my fingers and toes from stress), but when I went to check on my ouchy foot a few hours in, there was a purple bruise spreading at the spot where the toes join and a lot of pain on the ball of my foot, when I stood with my stillettos off.
I showed it to the housemom and the manager. He said that it was likely a sprain or I jammed the toe when I jumped and let me go home. I have ice on it and a new bottle of arnica gel. Anything else I should do? Elevate? Go to the doc?
I really need to work this weekend, but I do need my toe more! I have student health care, so I can go to the doc on Monday if I need to.
