[|Human|] Hi, I fell on my left foot 3 weeks ago playing basketball. I went to the doctors and they took and xray and it came out to be fractured. A piece of bone chipped off the ankle on the left side. I was given a splint to stabilize the ankle and given crutches. A week ago I was finally able to walk on my foot, but now I realize that when I move my toes or my foot I get a a burn feeling. If my foot sits there on idle it gives me this tingling feeling? Did I damage the sensory nerve in my foot cause of the fall? Is there some cream I can put on there? The burning feeling is preventing me from being able to therapy my foot because of the pain. If I touch my foot it does feel numb at parts. I have been icing and elevating my foot everyday for 3 three weeks and have even used Epsom salt to have the swelling go down.
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. Numbness can be due to nerve dysfunction. You can take vitamin B12 for reducing symptoms. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of health and normal functioning of the nerve tissue and deficiency of it can lead to numbness. You can increase B12 level by taking meat and fish, or you can take In methylcobalamine 1500 mcg If not relieved then I will advise you to MRI ankle and EMG/CV [nerve conduction study for better diagnosis. For these symptoms neurotrophic [Pregabalin] medication can be started consulting your doctor. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. Hope this answers your query.
