Suggest Treatment For Bruise On Foot Due To Accident

My boyfriend and I were jumping on a trampoline about 5 to 6 months ago and the heel of his foot came down on the top of my foot, and it left a pretty big bruise in the shape of a circle. I put ice on it, and it went away just a little bit, but it s still there. What would cause this?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having bruise and you got hematoma. If you has no fever, then no need to worry much. Hematoma gradually resolved by itself .Thrombophob gel local application three times a day over it(no rubbing) can help in resolving it. For pain relief analgesic such as ibuprofen can be taken .However it is unlikely to be fracture but x ray may be done to rule out fracture.You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any further questions then don't hesitate to writing to us . I will be happy to help you.
