Wore High Heels, On Feet Whole Day. Bottom Of Foot, Area Before Toes Swollen, Painful. Suggestions?
Hi, yesterday i worked for 8 hours straight nonstop washing 250 cars and was on my feet all day hustling around. I wear high heeled boots and tie them snugly. The bottom of my right foot like the ball and just before the toes is swollen and hurts when i walk. My feet were soaked after the day too so i was wondering what it could be

hi,
thank you for your query.
don't worry it is a very common occurrence.it is just due to the pressure of wearing high heels for 8 hrs.
just soak your feet in a warm water bath with sea salt for half hour twice a day for 3 days.also you can apply diclofenac gel on the affected areas and if the pain is unbearable you can you analgesics for a day.
the symptoms should come down with rest in a day or two.
thank you,
wishing you good health
