[|Human|] I stepped over a baby gate and clipped it with the heel of my shoe. My foot came down on top of the fallen gate. The gate slid and caused me to stretch my left leg out much further than I would typically stretch without warming up first. Felt pain near upper part of the leg(back). I am able to walk gently. Feels worse if I try to bend at the waist and stretch toward my feet. What should I do?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for writing to us, I have studied your case with diligence. It can be due to soft tissue injury or stress fracture. For these symptoms analgesic and anti-inflammatory can be started. Till time take medication and apply crêpe bandage over foot or use supportive splint. Do ice fomentation and rest to foot. If pain persists you may need x-ray foot to rule out stress fracture, you can consult your doctor and do require investigation. If you see any signs of infection like raised local temperature, increase in pain then you should consult your doctor immediately. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
