A member asked:
Hi. i dropped a shelf on my top part of my foot. its now swollen and sore and not so easy to walk on. do i need an x-ray?

Foot accident: Yes, please seek medical help. You will likely be given an x-ray. You don't want any possible breaks or fractures to heal out of alignment. That would cause more problems later. Peace and good health.
