[|Human|] Hi. Two days ago I was reaching for a can on the top shelf at the store and another one fell on my foot. It hit right below my last 3 toes. It is pretty sore, it s slightly bruised but mostly very swollen. I m not sure if I should go in and get it checked out. Definitely can t wear a closed toe shoe. Only been able to wear flip flops. Any advice?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for your query. From description, it seems to be soft tissue injury. Swelling might be due to hematoma formation(collection of blood). You need an x-ray to rule out any bony injury. I suggest you to consult an orthopaedician nearby for a detailed examination. You may get the X-ray of the area affected under his/her guidance. Beside icing and elevating it, you can take anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. Take care
