Foot swelling over few days?

Question

ok, i'm on vacation so i don't get out much, and i've been pretty much sitting at this computer for a long time. Now about 6 days ago, my foot started to hurt. it seemed ok, but it slowly swelled up. Now, it swelled up around my ankle and my foot pretty but bloated. it hurts, but i've been walking around and it got worse. it hurts when i move my toes or shift my foot or my ankle slightly. Anyone know what it is? And how i do get rid of it?

Answer 1

Sudden swelling without any reason calls for an immediate trip to the doctor. Please see a doctor immediately. This may happen either due to the numbness of the leg or due to the fact that you had kept your leg bent for a long time in order to suit the table. Please take immediate actions to  cure this.

Please follow the steps below if you are not interested in going to a doctor.

1. Put an ice pack on your swollen foot. as it really helps a lot.

2. Move your leg from time to time.

3. Do some foot exercises.

4. Just after waking up in the morning, put cold water on your foot.

5. Don't forget to apply balm in the night.

By following these steps, my brother had once defeated a swollen foot. So this answer is the best to my knowledge.

Have a good day!
