A member asked:
I fell down the stairs on friday and the arch of my foot is bruised and i can't bear all my weight on it. i haven't seen a doctor yet should i go?

Foot bruising/injury: The fact that there is some bruising and inability to bear weight without pain from an injury definitely deserves doctor visit... Physical evaluation, X-rays, possibly Mri.
