I fractured a bone in my foot (towards the top) 5 weeks ago. It still swells at the end of the day which I can understand as it is down all day. I sleep with it up. It was never in a cast, they put a "cam shoe" on it. I see the dr again in a week. Pain is tolerable and seems to be only in the area of the break now. Today I noticed that a large area below my big toe is a pinkish/purplish color and I see small red lines through it like possibly capillaries. I'm not sure if this is ok or if I should be worried. It went though the whole badly discolored bruised time so this seems out of place for 5 weeks out.
