Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sprained knee and right foot. Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like a fall that causes your ankle to twist , landing awkwardly on your foot after jumping or pivoting meniscus injury , disc problem and ligament tear . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper diagnosis and rule out any kind of compressed fracture , hairline fracture of soft tissue injury of back and ankle . Doctor may fix if there will be fracture for soft tissue injury doctor may recommend physical therapy and prescribe muscle relaxant , Doctor may also give plaster . For now put your foot upto in hot water tub with one spoon of salt in it for 15 minutes daily . and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . Doctor may also refer you to podiatrist for foot pain .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
