Nope, had to stop for 5 minutes, then pain got so bad and it went numb. Went to work, had to get a lift home.

Think ill make a wee trip to A+E tomorrow.

In the meantime treat it with CARE

Cold: Ice packs.
Asprin: Non-steroidal anti-inflamatory drugs reduse the damage from the initial incident and relieve the pain.
Rest: Don't try to walk on it, You'll do more damage.
Elevation: Raise the effected limb higher than your heart (so lying down, foot up on a pillow) to reduce the inflamation
