If there is a bruise ,swelling and unbearable pain while standing on toes then you need to go to ER for an Xray. If not you can take tablet diclofenac sodium 50 1xPOxSOS, voltral emulgel topical×BD and use crepe bange or ankle brace. For swelling keep the ankle hidh from body. Take rest and avoid unusual stress on ankle.
