Sprained foot???

Today, I dropped a computer tower on my foot and now it is really swollen and sore, but I can move it. It's red and it gets extremely sensitive with touch. it is hotter then most of my skin. What could it be?

It could be you "dropped a computer tower on your foot" ;) .... if you can move it - that's good news...probably just swollen - Advise you to get it checked out if swelling gets worse...

I hope you've been putting ice on it for 10 minutes a few times during the day!
You could have a fracture! I suggest getting it checked.
