Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I just fell and I feel as though my foot is broken but my daughter said it as a sprain so I dunno. I keep getting pains in my outstep, I heard and,felt it pop and crack and it is numb on the top of my foot and my toes are even hurting and there is swelling. Can you tell me what you think?
Hello, Thanks for the query. It may be a contusion or a thin fracture. As of now you can apply icepacks and take analgesics like ibuprofen or diclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist, you can consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated. An X-ray or MRI scan may be required based on initial evaluation. Wishing you good health. Thanks
