A Two By Two Foot Wood Shelf Fell About 5

A two by two foot wood shelf fell about 5 feet while a clerk was trying to get down a bedspread. I tried to back out of the way to not get hurt. I had numerous bruises, swelling on ankle, board hit directly on top of foot. I had it X-ray about 3 days later. It is still swollen and deformed looking, but doesn't hurt. The X-ray says that I have diffuse subcutaneous edema and soft tissue swelling of distal left leg. Bone density is diffusely decreased. I want a CT scan done of my foot as it looks so deformed since it was an accident due to shelfs not put up properly. Should it still be still this way almost 2 weeks later. Linda Torrence
