Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My small toe on the right foot was stepped on by a calf a week ago. It was pretty sore for the first few days and is still tender to walk on. The bruising on my foot is pretty much gone but the small toe is still swollen about 1/3 larger then normal.
