Suggest Remedy For Swollen Vein On Top Of Foot Due To Injury

I got my foot caught under a chair & compressed the top of my foot. It burned and hurt for a few minutes. Now I have a big blue swollen vein on the top of my foot that is hurting. I ve had ice on it for the last 15-20 minute. Do I need to do anything further?

x ray should be done to exclude any bony frctures or fissures then the toe should be inpected for any wounds..if there is wound you need repair and tetenus prophylaxis..if it is just a bruise you need hot fomentation from day 2 and hirudin cream and pain killer
