That sounds like my broken foot from last year. Thing is I felt/heard the crunch and crack through my body. I can't tell you if I heard it audibly but I did hear it internally and I KNEW I'd broken something.

I'd suspect tearing of ligaments and or cartilage. If it's cartilage that can sometimes be repaired or restructured. As for a broken bone - it depends on where it is. Mine was in my heel and apparently that's the hardest place to heal. In fact I still have a silver dollar sized chip in my heel. I'm walking at least. They put my foot in a brace for a month. It depends on the dr's office but our local medical clinic usually keeps a few spots open for 'day of' calls. You just have to be first one to call in the morning. A visit there is usually cheaper than urgent care/ER. At least that way if insurance is an issue it won't cost you as much.

Good luck - makes me hurt thinking about it.
