Never mind 🫠 The ball of the foot where I actually kicked is more or less fine, but somehow the impact fucked something up behind the big toe 😭 It was mildly painful to bend at the same joint as the broken one on the other foot all yesterday, but that pain’s gotten a lot worse?? I can feel the pressure behind my toe at all times, but the pain is only sharp/shocking when it bends, so I’ve immobilized it for now which helps!

I really don’t think it’s broken because the pain is bearable as long as I don’t bend it, just confused and frustrated I guess. Whatever it is I’m sure will heal on its own but I’ve gotta say the timing on this one is not particularly convenient— if you need me I’ll be waddling around like a penguin with all of my weight supported by my underarms 😭

I know I’m being a baby about this one but this is my not broken foot that I kicked with the boot on the broken one 😭

Been walking on my side feets

#luckily the crutch pads are quite effective for the underarm rests despite being ineffective for the hand ones #so I just made them taller and am trying not to put too much weight into my arms #although now that I am also trying to somehow keep weight off both feet at the same time my shoulders might need the help #who tf is out here praying on my downfall #does my ex have a voodoo doll #the right foot (broken) is not wrapped as tightly as it appears here #it’s not holding the toe crooked it’s just hella padded at the ball #the left foot really isn’t that bad now that it’s immobilized #sorry this is footblr now if I do not have an outlet for these agonies I will implode faster than the titan #I swear irl I’m actually a fairly optimistic and jovial type person even during this very dark season of life #but between the gallbladder and the gastroparesis and the hernia and everything that predated those recent additions #and this broken foot and then THIS injured foot and all the medication complications and lack of pain management #I’ve been pushed a just a tad passed my usual stress limit and am #officially only capable of producing complaints #for the time being #it wouldn’t be so bad if it were possible to use the wheelchair in the house #the back of the toe is also very sensitive to the touch #why
