Hello,
As per your history, it may be due blunt trauma.
For further assessment you may require X Ray of foot after orthopedician consultation.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
You may require slab after consultation or surgical intervention after orthopedician consultation.
Use support while walking. Take proper rest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
