Xray: You might want to get an xray of the foot just to be sure you didn't get a small fracture of any of the many bones of the top of your foot for peace of mind. Can you walk ok? If you're walking alright, you can probably bypass the ER and wait for Urgent Care tomorrow or even your own doctor on Monday. Best wishes, I hope it feels better soon!

Contusion at: Minimum but an xray would help you rule out any type of fracture....Ice, elevation and compression are key right now....
