My son hit my ankle with a toy, 7 hrs later i can't walk on it or touch it and it's radiating pain! bruised bone maybe? or possibly a break/fracture?

Ankle trauma: Wow, he really got you! I just cannot imagine you have sustained a break from this mechanism, BUT if you are unable to bear weight on it you should be seen. Put some ice on it, you have probably sustained a "contusion" rather than a fracture.
