How To Cure Pain On Top Of Foot Due To An Injury?

Hi, I dropped a sharp knife on the top of my foot. it bled for around 45 mins. It is above my toes around 1 cm.It seems to be healing on the skin, but fluid underneath. it has become very painful, and I have t ice it many times during the night to stop the knife like pain. Do you think I could have chipped a bone/ it is not red?

HI
Well come to HCM
If the would is deep and lacerated then it is better to get done the x-ray to rule out the fracture part, one more infection need to be ruled out or wound should be prevented from infection if the proper care being taken then it would heal very well, hope this information helps, take care.
