Need Treatment For Swollen Foot And Ankle After An Accident
Hello, It could be a contusion probably. Fracture is unlikely. As first-line management, you can apply ice packs for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
