dropped heavy item on top of my foot slight swelling around the cut on my foot very tender to touch?


Question:
heavy metal wheel trim fell on my foot left cut on foot

Answers:
Right doenst matter if you can weight bear or not you can still have a fracture off the metatarsals (foot) ,swelling is sometimes a sign off a fracture but not always,it could be the muscles and ligaments in the foot you have badly bruised.To find out what injury you have part from a cut you need to get yourself to your gp or A/E for an x-ray,the dr will then decide what further treatment you will need.Also when was the last time you had a tetnus jab,as you may have to have one off these too.Good Luck And they still x ray toes in my hospital they dont just send you hame and tell you to rest.
Sounds boken to me!!!

Did it hurt? Did you do that old trick hopping on one foot? PMSL.

Did you get someone to hit the wheel trim.. how naughty of it to fall on your foot.

I would go to A&E may possibly need to be seen in fracture clinic... dont keep your shoes/socks on.. let your foot breath..

You should elevate, cold compress but not too cold that it burns your foot... be careful...

let us know how you get on
well go to the hospital you daft bat.
