Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. I need to see your affected foot x ray ( ap & oblique views) so that I can see whether there is any bony injury or not? you can do:- - ice packs intensively till you get your x ray done - limb elevation over pillows - avoid putting weight on affected foot till x rays show there is no bony injury - take any otc pain killer like paracetamol, ibuprofen, voveran etc till that time. Please send me your x ray as soon as get it done so that I can see and give you and opinion. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
