A member asked:
Dropped a bowling bowl on my foot 1000x times. it swollen, but not bruised. dropped at 7 inches each time as a dare.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why?: Why would you do such a thing for someone else's entertainment? If there is pain with activity then x-rays are probably needed to check for fracture. 7 inches isn't much, so it may just be soft tissue injury. If no fracture then time and rest/elevation is all that can be done.
