Suggest Remedy For Bruised Foot
i stuck my foot in a shoe and it felt like I was walking on a stone. SO, I took the shoe off. It hurt on the ball of my foot near my outer side. I could feel a hard knot on the ball. I sat don and my third toe hurt extremely bad when I touched it. The next morning, the bottom and top of my foot was bruised. The bruising is spreading across the top of my foot. There is still a hard knot on the ball.

Hello,
A bruise is a kind of soft tissue injury and will settle by itself. No definite treatment is required.
You can apply icepacks for faster recovery. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedic and plan for an X-ray to rule out bone involvement.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
