Suggest Treatment For Tendinitis And Foot Pain After Injury

Edge of pretty heavy chair dropped on foot that was previously recovering from tendinitis, chair fell on foot, foot started to hurt like crazy sat down immediately iced immediately got up tried walking an hour later shooting pain went through middle of foot and then outside of foot and shoots through pinky toe...woke up next day foot does not hurt worse maybe a little bit better cannot really tell...Any idea if I may have just aggravated my tendinitis a little more or could I have done something worse?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, you got injury to already inflammed part so it will increase the inflammation and pain. Continue with the therapy you are taking for tendinitis and take proper care to avoid further injury (if the pain is not so great and swelling has not increased).
