How to tell if you have a broken toe?

My horse stood on my foot about 10am today and I'm still limping now :/

Toe is nicely swollen, lots of bruises, and despite my having not moved it for the last hour still hunts.

If it is broken how long should it take to heal (roughly), and what should I do?... unfortunately can't really rest it during the day seeing as I work on a livery yard and spend the day on my feet constantly on the move.

    If its very swollen and your for sure you cant move it, the best thing to do is go get it x-rayed. It would be a lot safer.
