Suggest Treatment For Wrist And Foot Injury

Hi, I fell a year ago at a dance competition, I went to a&e that night with left wrist and left foot pain. I was sent home with what they said were sprain and soft tissue damage but when I returned 5 weeks later in as much pain if not more they realized my foot was actually broken and NY wrist had a suspect scaphoid fracture.

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
Any fracture in a joint can cause the whole area to pain.Foot and scaphoid fractures definitely needs attention.If the fractures are minor,undisplaced,plaster immobilisation should be enough. If its displaced,it may require surgical intervention.
Nothing to worry about.
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
