Suggest Treatment For Swelling In Ankle And Calf After A Crush Injury
My ankle and calf are swollen and feel hot. It has been 1 1/2 weeks since I stopped a quad with my right leg resulting in a crush injury to the back of my calf with severe deep tissue bruising and severe bruising to the big toe. No fractures or breaks. Swelling started a week ago but was most after full day of working. Kiniseo tape helped with swelling initially but after traveling on an airplane 2 days ago swelling is worse and area feels hot.
