Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Three days ago, I was playing second base and was hit in the medial part of lower leg just above the ankle. I have significant bruising and swelling. I have used compression wrap on foot and ankle along with icing it. I have to go to work during the day but I try to sit intermittently to rest while at work. When home I elevate, ice and gently massage when tolerating. It is still pretty painful. I have tingling and some numbness in the toes (except great toe). I did have a contusion to the anterior tibia on same leg in September ball game last year too. I have intermittent sharp pains on the medial side of leg with stepping. At times I can't tolerate standing on foot but after warming up I can walk around. I have limited motion of ankle. Fracture? partial? contusion with sprain?
