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.
So I am 13 years old and I am an all-star cheerleader. I just recovered from stress fractures to my 3rd and 4th I believe metatarsals on my right foot. I still feel some pain in that foot, but not badly. The day I got my boot off my right foot I dropped a fairly heavy wooden easel on top my left foot. Its been 3 days and its extremely painful to walk on. Theres a slight bump and on the bump the skin is red and the skin around the bump is slightly brownish-purplish id say but ever so slightly! I have a competition in 2 weeks that I already promised my team id compete at. What do you think is wrong, how long do you think I can go without going to the doctor, and is this reasonable? Thank you!
