General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

With the history of injury that you provided, it is obvious that there is pretty heavy load that dropped on your foot which might have resulted in severe injury to the tissues around the foot. Is there any limitation to movement?

Have you seen a doctor after that or went to get an Xray of the foot? If not then do visit an orthopedic surgeon for the same, let him examine the foot appropriately. If needed he might ask you to get an xray of the foot done. After seeing the results he ‘ll advise you medicines for your symptoms as well as to strengthen the bone and muscle tissues in the foot.

Hope this helps. Feel free to contact for any further query in the future.
