What Causes Pain In Foot After Removing Glass Stuck In It?
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?

you do not need clutches. it is just a soft tissue injury and you might need antibiotics and a shot of tetanus toxoide ( TT) vaccination. for pain can take analgesics like tablet diclofenat 50 mg taken twice daily after lunch. why lying in bed see to it your limb is elevated above the level of your chest. you can use two or more pillows to achieve it. hope it helps. any doubt can contact me.
