I know it's not broken (the pain was never on the "oh **** I broke something" scale, it's being a serious PITA. I'm taking 'er easy today gonna be barefoot the majority of the time.
I aint that far off 40, either, 35. I can't be arsed to go to a doctor, I didn't go to a Dr when I half ripped off my toenail whacking it on the coffee table either. The irony is I have coverage, I could go to any doctor for free, anytime. I just hate going to the Dr, they probably can't do anything for it, anyway.
It's quite possible to put a small crack in something and not know it. You're probably right that
this long after the event, they can't do anything, but you should go anyway.
Do you start a new job next week? How are they going to regard someone who is straight away limping everywhere? If not a new job, you'll have lots of time for the doctor's right?
