Suggest Remedy For Foot Pain

This morning I stepped on a pointy star and it punctured the heel of my foot. I felt it hit bone and I started to bleed once I pulled it out. The blood was not red though. It was hot pink. I have never seen this before. Does that color mean anything?

Hi,

It is blood which is coming out. Do proper dressing, take a course of antibiotics, and take over the counter painkillers.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
