Suggest Medication For Pain On Foot Due To Being Stamped

hello I was playing basketball and someone stepped on the left side of my foot. It did not hurt really bad until I decided to rest it when I got home... The pain is unbearable... I have put ice on it for 15 min and the pain is gone a little but I have a high tolerance for pain. It hurts to the touch... on the left side up toward the middle.. I do not have any medical insurance so I cannot get x-rays two small children so whatever you can advise so I can stop the pain to care for them will help...

Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that someone stepped on the left side of your foot while playing basketball. However you should got it x-ray to rule out fracture but you cannot get it. Treatment of it is elevation over pillow ,icing and analgesics such as ibuprofen three times a day to get relief. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
