How To Cure Swelling And Pain In The Foot ?

Hello, I had a martial arts competition yesterday, and something happened to my foot. My mum said that i just sprained my foot. It is swollen and I cant walk. Yesterday it was EXTREMELY painful when it happened, however i continued fighting and when i got home, thats when it got worse. Right now i have to jump aroung on one foot, but even then i feel the pain in my left foot. Its at the top of the foot and on top of the tendons. When I step on it, i feel the pain at the bottom of the foot, as if it travels from the top to the bottom. Did I just sprain it or did i damage my tendons or broke something? (I am 14 years old and 168cm tall)

Hello,

It may be due to muscle sprain.

For further assessment you may require x ray foot after orthopedic surgeon consultation.

For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Use support while walking.

Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally.

Restrict your movements

Hope I have answered your query...
Let me know if I can assist you further.
