Possible broken bone?

[DiCe!]

I get this after playing football, right IN the ball of my foot, seems to bruise ( I hope its a bruise) If it happens again ill get it xrayed if I can.

How old are the shoes/trainers you wear most? I find that as they break down over time I can develop sharp pains where the stresses change in the shoe. If I swap to a different pair the pain often goes within a few days. In which case the old shoes can be chucked.

I've seen lots of foot x-rays that showed signs of healed fractures that the person had no knowledge of.

got a fractured cocyx, hurt like hell when I sat down but I just carried on, not much you can do.

A residual structure that performs no function, only to be broken when you land on your bum!
