what are the symptoms of a broken bone.
I think i might have broken my heel. its hard to walk, i have excruciating pain in the bottom of my leg and my ankle/ foot.

*pain in the injured area*
*swelling in the injured area*
*obvious deformity in the injured area*
*difficulty using or moving the injured area in a normal manner*
*warmth, bruising, or redness in the injured area*

Bruising
Swelling
Can't move the injured part
Lots of pain
Can't sleep or pay attention

There is normally swelling, but it depends how your body reacts to it.
Sometimes it can look bruised.
Sore to touch.
Very painful.
Hard to walk on.

I would advise to put an ice pack on it, or a packet of frozen peas or something like that to help bring the swelling/bruising out if there is any. Take some pain killers to help with the pain and if it doesn't get better go to A&E.

Tons of pain once
swollen (part of where you think yo broke it)
cant really move it
I suggest going to the doctor and getting it checked out you might have broken or cracked it or just hurt it really bad,but doctors will surely help you out
