Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Foot

I had a heavy object fall out of cupboard onto my foot. The third or middle toe at base was swollen and steady great pain. Then turned black and blue around base of some toes on top of foot. Now 3 days later it hurts to walk and I was walking around more today and now hurts in front of my ankle and is swollen about size of quarter. Swollen circle is on side of my ankle bone lining up with little toe. Is ut possible to have a clot?
