Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi. I got glass stuck in my foot and my mom and grandma tried to get it out, because the doctors was closed. My mom says she took it out but everytime I walk my foot hurts so so so bad! I searched online if I needed crutches, a lot of people said yes, if it hurts. Do I need crutches?
Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
from your history it mite be just a contrition. so you wont need a crutches. just rest to the foot with hot compression followed by local application of analgesic will help you ( Diclofenac gel for local application). tablet diclofenac 50 mg twice a day after meals will help reduce the pain. if u want can use elasto-crept bandage to restrict the moment of the ankle.
Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
Have a wonderful time ahead.
Best Regards! Dr. Arunmozhi varman
