I was skateboarding today and i jumped down some stairs and my right foot landed on the pavement and twisted inward. It now has minimal swelling on the right side of the center of the foot and has pain when i walk. i can not run at all and have small trouble walking. is this probably a bruised, sprained, or broken foot? should i go see a doctor? Please answer.

 Hi pats,
Bruising, strains and breaks all cause swelling. Generally speaking when a bone is broken, you have a throbbing pain. The only way to know for sure though is by xray.
Sincerely,
Rntdj
