Suggest Remedy For Pain Around The Achilles Region
Hello Doctor,
I recently sustained an injury whilst playing football. I was studded on the inside of my left leg about 2 inches above the ankle joint. Now there is a lump there and a bruise. The bruising has also extended to the bottom of my foot, i assume this is a rupture of a blood vessel. The issue I have is that I have full mobility of my foot and leg, but it has been 2 weeks now and that region of my leg is in a lot of pain when touched and I can also feel a little pain around my achilles region.
Should I be going to the hospital or something for an xray?
