Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Dear patient
fracture needs to be ruled out with xray of the foot anteroposterior, lateral and oblique views. please get it done from radiology centre nearby you. if Xray report is abnormal you need to consult orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area. if Xray report is normal you need not to worry. Crepe bandage application, limb elevation should be done. Tab zerodol sp twice a day for pain relief.
