Hello
Thanks for the query
Yes we are real doctors and you dont need insurance to get an answer.
Here is what you should do for the foot
1.Continue to apply cold packs. It should be applied for about 10-15 minutes every hour
2. Tab Acetaminophen ( Paracetamol) three times a day will bring down pain
3. Apply Diclofenac gel over the area, it gives immediate relief
4. No need to apply ice all night
5. Avoid lifting heavy weights and also do not exert pressure over the foot when walking.
6. If the pain is unbearable and the swelling increases then please approach the Emergency room now itself
Please get an x ray of the foot tomorrow to rule out fractures
I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
