I dropped a heavy object on the top of my foot about 3 weeks ago. I have had an xray and there are no broken bones. My foot is still swollen, painfull and it is hard to put pressure on that foot. What have done to it and how much longer will it take to mend?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to inflammation due to the injury.
I suggest using cold compresses for local application.
I also suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
