Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Bruised Foot
Get an X-ray done! See an orthopedist!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this injured ankle. I have reviewed your information fully and the first step is to make sure that there is damaged structure at the ankle. For this, we will need an X-ray to begin with. Also, I will like to see this leg evaluated by an orthopedist as it may require casting for immobilization, pain control and healing. For now, rest, elevation and Ice packs alongside tylenol and ibuprofen would help control the pain and swelling. Avoid bearing any further weight on this leg until it is evaluated and probably immobilized to allow for healing.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
Probably not broken but twisted ligaments/tendons!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Reviewing your information and the image doesn't give the impression that there is a broken structure here. Rather, I strongly think ligaments and tendons have been twisted in the wrong direction. For that reason, Immobilizing this leg as well as rest would help stabilize the structures and help with the healing process.
How are you feeling at this time?
I wish you well.
