Feel Off Bike, Have Cuts On Foot. Foot Swollen. What Could Be The Cause. Any Home Made Remedy?
I fell off my bike and i have cuts on the top of my foot at 3 places. Until today my foot was almost at all time resting on a chair, today i sat in a normal position for the whole day(with feet down) and i have noticed that my foot has swollen, what might be the cause, is there a homemade remedy or shall i visit a Doctor?

Thanks Aditya for your query.
You have traumatic edema in your foot which is normal. Keep the foot raised and massage it lightly in upward direction. Take care of the cuts. Apply antiseptics and antibiotics to avoid infection. Take tab Zerodol SP twice daily for 3 days for pain and decreasing swelling.
