Get an xray.: You need to be examined by a doctor, either your own doctor, an orthopedist or at an emergency room. When did this occur? The only way to tell for sure if there is a fracture, is to be examined and get an X-ray.

Probably not broken: The fact that you CAN walk is a pretty good sign there is probably not a fracture. The pain on dorsiflexion (turning up) your toes is MUSCULAR (likewise the pain when you walk. ICE ELEVATE REST and if still a problem and not improving in 48-72 hours get xrays. Hope this helps Dr Z
