Hi.
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Hitting the foot hard at the site of fracture repair by screw .. is very much likely to cause trauma/ disturbance to the screwing hold.
Take rest , avoiding movements of foot. Application of Ice pack will relieve pain & inflammation. Over the counter pill of Ibuprofen can be taken after food.
X ray of foot only can define the type & extent of the harm made . Pl. consult your orthopedic surgeon.
Thanks.
