Thanks for your reply. I think there was very slight discolouration. I was unable to determine if it was swollen. This toe I smashed about 4-5 years ago. It looked like a jigsaw on the x-ray. Since then the toe and the ball has always been bigger than the other big toe and to be honest looking at it now it does not seem any smaller than I can remember. The pain did carry on without shoes. It is much much better now. I had been iceing it. All I have now is a slight pain when pushing the ball at 5pm an the pain is on the outside of the ball and not underneath it.
