Brief Answer:
Please go in to be seen
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,
If you had trauma to your foot a week ago, and now your foot is hurting even more than at the time of initial trauma, it is time to go in for an x-ray. Please go in to either your doctor, or if you can't see him or her promptly, then to an urgent care clinic.
The squishing you are describing is likely due to inflammation and fluid collection.
It is important to go in for your foot to be examined in person at this point.
In addition, if you can tolerate NSAIDs, take ibuprofen 200 - 600 mg up to 3 times a day but make sure you have food in your stomach first. This will help with inflammation and pain. Also elevate your foot whenever possible.
I hope this information helps. Please let me know if I can provide further information or clarification.

Brief Answer:
Yes, this is possible.
Detailed Answer:
Yes - it is still possible to have a fracture without knowing it. Best to go in to a clinic to get this sorted out and after examining and probable x-ray, you will know what is involved and whether you need to stay off of it.
