Forceful impact to top of foot.

Oh and I failed to mention that I live in Australia and also the last couple of days I have noticed that (not very often) If i have my foot resting on the ground then shift it or lift it up, I can feel a 'popping' kind of feeling followed by pain. Anyhow thanks in advance,

Brad

In MY opinion, you need to be evaluated by a doctor whose interpretation of a problem after trauma does not begin and end with whether or not there is a fracture. Of all the problem which may result from trauma, a fracture is often the least significant, and easiest to diagnose and treat. A GP, at least as is qualified in the U.S., is probably not the best choice for evaluation and care of orthopedic trauma. I would recommend either a podiatrist or an orthopedist who deals with the feet. As far as help from a forum is concerned, it is useless and perhaps even dangerous to be obtaining specific treatment advice from even qualified doctors who have not evaluated you.
