Does Swollen, Tight And Achy Foot Require Immediate Medical Assistance?
I kicked a tire during anger (for which I am seeing a psychologist), and hours later I cannot walk on that foot. Shall I seek medical assistance immediately or wait until tomorrow? The foot is not cold or showing bruising. It is somewhat swollen and feels tight and achy. I kicked with the ball of my foot pretty much on the median line. Thank-you!
