What does a broken toe feel like?

I bumped my foot (hard) earlier today. My toe is a little swollen and slightly blue. I can walk and I’m not in pain, unless I touch it or accidentally knock it against something. When I do that, it hurts in a very strange way that I’ve never experienced before. It’s a stabbing pain that takes my breath away, and then it disappears quite suddenly.

I’ve never had any broken bones, so I’m unsure whether this could possibly be my first. I would expect a broken bone to hurt constantly.

Any thoughts?

PS: My current plan is to see a doctor tomorrow, unless I wake up healed.
