A member asked:
I fractured my foot&recently the bruise on the bottom has spread to the center and has become painful&hard to walk on even w/my boot.. is this normal?

Yes it is: Usually when you fracture your foot, the bone bleed, with gravity the blood travel to the bottom and form what we call hematoma, it take a little time to go away.

A member asked:
I have somehow injured my left ankle. I'm not sure if it is sprained, or there's a hairline fracture, as it's so painful even to bear weight on it or walk. I am limping very badly. It is very swollen, bruised and tender to the touch. Please help me?
