Swelling in Foot!!!?

Question

Suddenly, I started scratching my foot, and then i realised it was a bit swollen........i think it might be an insect bite........and rite now my foot is swollen red and it feels hot..........is this serious???

What can i do to ease the pain, cuz i find it difficult to walk!!!!!!

Answer 1

You can try applying ice to the area to see if that helps but I would recommend checking with your doctor first to see what they say.

Because it feels hot to the touch an infection could be going on as well (an example only).
