I was doing toe stand wings in dance class and injured my right foot. it is badly bruised and swollen. It hurts to walk and I am walking on the inside since it is on the outside top of my foot. I dont have insurance and cant get an xray but will wrapping it help? I am 18 yrs old I have type 1 diabetes and in remission currently for my graves disease. I have shin splints too so im not sure if that will affect this pain.

Hello,

It may be due to fracture foot.

For further assessment you may require x ray foot after orthopedic surgeon consultation..

Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

You may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation.

Use support while walking.

Avoid direct pressure.

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