Hello,
As most bruise resolves with time. But on a safer side, I will advise taking an x-ray if any bone Injury is present.
Also, do hot water fermentation so the vascularization improves and the dead cells move out. Simple ankle toe movements will be of benefit as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
