How To Treat Injury Mediated Toe And Foot Cramping?

I kicked my car three or four times as hard as I could (right foot). On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the worst, I'm having an 8 of a cramp like feeling through my toes, top of foot, and right side of foot and its going up through my ankle too. What could I have done? No insurance so no real doctor for it.

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Its possible that you might have fractured either your toes or metatarsals in your foot. X-rays is definitely first line of treatment but since you are uninsured, I would recommend going to ED at a local hospital where they have to provide you with minimum care, get an x-ray done to rule out any joint damage and recommend getting a cam walker which cost around 35 dollars to take pressure off our toes and metatarsals.

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

Regards,
Dr. Samuel Parmar
