I was playing softball yesterday and i hit a double... when i was running, i stepped on the corner of the base with the back of my heel really hard and my foot hurt fairly badly. I didn't go back out for a couple innings, and the pain subsided some and i was able to jump up and down and resume playing. However, when i went back home, i couldn't even walk. When i woke up this morning, the pain was pretty excruciating when i put weight on my heel (so i have to walk on the ball of my left foot now). However, if i don't put any weight on my foot, my foot is ok. What do you guys think? Is this something that'll go away in a few days of rest? I think i'm going to see a doctor later tonight just in case.

I dont think it's broken, since you could still walk around and jump after you had the injury. If your bone was broken, your foot would've been screaming bloody murder if you did.

Of course, there's always the possibility of a fracture, but it's probably sprained.

Anythings possible? Go see a doctor for an X-ray.

Microfractures are hard to find on an X-ray though -- at least till it calcifies. If you could play on it, I am thinking it isn't broken, but it could be a microfracture. Get it checked up.

When I broke my foot, I walked on it for 2 weeks because I was misdiagnosed.
