It sounds like you may have fractured a bone, my recommendation is to take a trip to the hospital for some x-rays to make sure. Any injury to your foot should be scrupulously examined because you have a great deal of bones in there - 26 bones to be exact. Constant pain is a good indicator you have fractured your foot. If you are unable to wiggle any of your toes, there is a chance you fractured a bone or entirely tore a ligament in your foot and will need treatment.

I'd say better safe than sorry. If you're really concerned about it, Then go get it looked at by a doctor.
