What Do Bruises On Foot Indicate?

Hello, this morning I noticed bruises on the top of my foot by the toes. I can not recall dropping anything on my foot or hitting my foot against something. During the day I wear tennis shoes and didn t really notice any discomfort. However when I took the shoes off this evening and was walking around there is a some pain (but not unbearable) and I noticed I am favoring the foot. Is this something that I should worry about further and go to the doctor?

It could be secondary to an improper footwear. Just wash the feet with warm saline. Sleep with your legs raised. If it doesn't improve in 24 to 48 hrs plz see a doctot and do a CBC lft and coagulation profile. Hope it helps. Take care.
