Don't worry help is here..You could of stubbed you bone and ripped the tissue but it's not that serious..You most likey sprained it..You don't want to put Ice on it run hot water on it but not steaming..Or put a heating pad on to soothe it..Please do not walk or it if you walk on a sprained foot it could end up broken I have had a cast before and it was horrible I couldn't do anything no prom no friends no nothing..Follow these instructions until your parents get home..Health Question & Answer

You could try bathing it in cold water to get the swelling down then it might not be so painful..
You could also put some frozen vegetables from the freezer (peas work well) - into a cloth and put that on your toe.. (DO NOT PUT FROZEN THINGS DIRECTLY ON YOUR SKIN - IT MIGHT DAMAGE YOUR SKIN)..
Only an xray can tell if you have broken anything - but once the swelling is down you might get a better idea..
I hope this helps and that you are not on your own too long..Health Question & Answer
