Hello,
You are suffering from swelling and right foot pain after injury. For relieve you can take anti-inflammatory medications, it will help reduce swelling and pain. Give rest to the affected foot. Ice compression and elevation may help. As you also have foot swelling at the bottom. Your symptoms may be indicative of
plantar fasciitis that occurs due to repetitive
stress on the bottom of the feet.
Stretching from the heel towards the toes while skating and poor calf strength or flexibility may cause it.
Physical therapy and night splints may be helpful. Do not put full weight on the affected foot. Custom-fitted arch supports (
orthotics) may help to distribute the pressure on your feet more evenly. Get treated. You are suggested to get clinically examined by an Orthopedics. Get X-ray done to detect ankle, foot or lower leg
fracture,
neuroma, sprains and
tendonitis, etc. Fracture may present with pain, bruising and swelling that don’t quickly resolve. Get treated.
Always buy skates that are at least an inch or half-inch larger to give you a snug fit and are comfortable. The right socks and padding help by reducing friction between your feet and your inline skating shoes. This will help to avoid blisters that cause unending and irritating pain. Always use the right inline skate shoes, wear socks when rollerblading, use the correct skating technique. Avoid over skating, and train your leg and feet muscles more.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
