Suggest Treatment For Light Bruising And Swelling On Foot

Hi today I dropped my iPod on my foot and it was quite painful but it didn t seem like to much at the time. I was then walking up the stairs a while after and I couldn t move my toes, I had not twisted my foot in anyway it just happedend. There was slight bruising and swelling from my initial accident and there is a dull ache in my foot and I get shooting pains at certain movements. I just can t move my toes, Not because it hurts, they just don t move although I can feel them.

Hi, your injury seems minor and will correct with time, take some analgesics if you have pain, keep the limb elevated on pillow.
