Yes, swelling and pain is your body's natural reaction to injury or some sort of damage. It is wise to seek some professional help to get a diagnosis of the injury and to assertain the severity of the injury. You should see someone as soon as possible - and in the meantime - keep icing your injury every 2-3 hours for 20 minutes.

The answer is definately see a health professional. There are a few nasty conditions (apart from just bruising) that can occur as a result of this type of injury. You should see your local physio or GP ASAP to make sure it is just bruising and there is no compromise of blood flow into and out of the foot. Good luck, jono

Yes, I would definitely see a professional. The sooner you see someone the better. It is important for us to assess what has happened and therefore get the appropriate treatment started.
