Popping Sensation In Feet, Swelling, Pain, Soreness, Redness, Pinching Sensation. What Is Wrong?
5 days ago I I rolled my foot outward while taking a step off a ramp. I heard what sounded like several pops and cracks all at once. I had instant pain and swelling. I followed the rice method for the first 48 hrs then had to resume life. Then yesterday it was swollen and sore again elevated and iced again. Today it is red, hot to the touch, itchy and has a pinching sensation. What causes these symptoms and should I have it looked at by a physician?
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. From your description it seems that you have suffered a soft tissue injury in your foot. In case there is no swelling or any in tense pain on weight bearing then there is nothing to worry. You can use a crepe bandage. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal , drtayal72@gmail.com
