Gershun,
One thing that can happen is that when you changed your gait after breaking your metatarsals, a new injury to the soft tissues nearby has occurred. You would not have needed another fall for this to occur.

Of course, I did not know this, doctor internet told me. Always consult your doctor about new symptoms after your injury. And maybe treat the newly appearing bruise just as you did the original injury: R.I.C.E.

This is just me, but I would be soaking my foot in epsom salts to speed up healing, but I could be wrong. Be sure to keep moving, and do not try any exercises on your foot without the advice of your doctor or physical therapist.

Both Cwilllie and Golden have made good points, consistent with normal physiology and what doctor internet has advised.

Disclaimer: Be careful when following advice from doctor internet or persons on a forum. Even people trained in the medical field can be given or giving differing opinions, or misled by good sounding advice. Verify sources, follow the money. ✅

Not sure about that Gershun, but I do know that blood from a deep bruise or haematoma can migrate so perhaps it's something like that?

gershun - no answer from me but I can sympathize. About the same time you broke your foot bones I dropped a heavy mirror on my second toe, left foot. It hurt and bruised up well, then eventually the bruise faded. So I put shoes on one day and the toe became darker again. It is very slowly fading once more and I am still wearing sandals. Did you knock it again or do anything different that would trigger this? Bruising is blood leaked into the tissues

Does anyone on here know why my bruises from my fracture would go away completely and then next day be back again? I looked at my foot two days ago and it looked bruise free. Now today the two toes adjacent to the ones I broke are bruised.

I looked online and could not find any definitive answers.

LOL! Loving this new mattress pad! But, last night something was crinkly, crunchy underneath it. I just pulled back the corner of the sheets and pad; there was the warranty information packet that I made into the bed! It will be much quieter tonight!

I went to our local general department store, which is smothered with trivia to buy for Christmas, and was a bit surprised to find that there was not one nativity scene for sale. I have a beautiful little ceramic crib and crew, which is one of the few Christmas things I bother to bring out (unless children etc make more essential), but I was staggered by the range of solar powered snow covered villages and surfing Santas, with not one religious item. No shepherds, no wise men, no Jesus, Mary or Joseph.

On the way out, I chatted to Security on the door, and the guy said that he’d noticed it too. He said that perhaps Rudolph was more exciting, then he agreed with my reply ‘Perhaps not to Mary’. And I suppose that’s another thing. ‘The Birth of Christ’ depictions never had much in common with your average birth – in more ways than the religious.
