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.
I think I have answered my own question by reading other postings.....I dropped a heavy suitcase on my foot yesterday - inbetween my bunion and my big toe; it hurt yesterday but I could walk on it - I woke up this morning in very bad pain and iced it; but it s swelling and bruising and still very painful.....I am thinking that I should go to the ER tomorrow AM and get an x-ray - I have to be on my feet quite a bit for work over the holiday weekend :(
hello, blunt trauma which u had will lead to oedema in the traumatised region which cause much of the pain and the bone injury if present will hurts a lot so if u have any analgesic do take, dip the foot in warm water for 10min if there is no surface injury and do consult a orthopedician asap
