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.
ive kicked door hard with my foot palm upright for 4 or more times and the inside part on foot back felt painful after 1 hour,so far there's no swelling in the first day,i wonder if i should see doctor to check if theres any fractures and how long will it take to heal? Thanks for your help.
Hi, welcome to health care magic forum. As you describe, if you kick with the front part of the foot, there could be a fracture, may be hairline fracture. If you kick with the heal, the possibility of the fracture is less. I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an X ray of foot AP, and lateral view of the foot. If there is a fracture plaster caste for 8 weeks may be needed. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery . Thank you.
