Suggest Treatment For A Painful Bruise On The Foot
I just noticed that I have a bruise on the top of my right foot. I have no idea where it came from. I did go to a rolfing session this morning but my foot was not bruised by this. I cannot see how that would have happened. I have had sessions before and this is the first time I have had a bruise.
There can be various causes for painful bruise on the foot as: - Walking barefoot - Unnoticed trauma - Ill fitting shoes - Bug bite (unnoticed)
Primary relieving factors
- Cleansing with antiseptic liquid or soap - Local application of Aloe vera gel - Analgesic and anti-inflammatory medications as diclofenac or piroxicam
Discuss the need of any antibiotic from your doc for faster resolution.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
