Could A Sore Lump On Foot Be Due To Sprain Or Its Just A Bruise?
I got up from a chair . My foot must have fallen a sleep and when I went to take a step, my foot went back and all of a sudden I was in massive pain and broke out in a sweat and naeutious . Now I have a lump on the top of my foot and I can walk without putting pressure on it; but it is still sore but not like when it first happened. this a sprain or did I just bruise it badly?
