Default Possible broken foot

So I think I broke or fractured a bone my foot today, specifically the 5th metatarcel.

It doesnt hurt unless I put pressure on the ball of my foot, but if I move my toes there is no pain but if I tug the toes side to side there is pain.

Should I go to the hospital or wait for tommorrow to see if it feels better

I would get it x-rayed. If its a jones fracture that can be a big deal, but from what you described I woulnt think so if its furter towards the toes. Usualy its just a hard soled shoe and weight bearing as tolerated. If you were up this way I would say swing by tonight i can get the x-ray done rather quickly.

Did one like that in basic and refused treatment to keep from being recycled. Yoga permanent spur now and it ached for years. Go get it looked at
