Hi.

Yesterday my German Shepherd decided to run full force to the right while I wasn't paying attention. I had my shoes loose, so my right foot went double (not sure if that's correct English).

I think I heard something crack, but I am sure I felt instant nausea. That went away quick and the pain wasn't that terrible. At home I put some ice on it and later went to my physician who ordered an X-ray.

The X-ray didn't show a broken bone, so the hospital send me home saying there was nothing wrong.

I cannot stand on my foot, I have to use crutches. It hurts like hell if I put a bit of weight on it. But if I just lie down on the couch for a while it seems as if the pain almost goes away completely (until I stand up or move my foot too much). I can wiggle my toes a little bit, even the smallest one.

I don't have an X-ray here (we dont get them ourselves in my country) but I have a picture of my foot. Does anybody know if this can be a jones fracture?

Thanks in advance!
