[|Human|] Two days ago I was hit by a shopping cart on the back of my right heel. My foot got caught under the cart bending it backwards. When this happened I felt a pop in the plantar fascia ligament. How I am having pain on the bottom of my foot along with my Achilles tendon and heel. There is fluid to the right of the Achilles right behind the ankle. Should I see my doctor?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for your query.* Based upon your description, I suspect that you might have injured the ligaments around the heel. An initial X-ray of the ankle joint is necessary to rule out any bony injury. If X-rays are negative for any fracture, then MRI scan is needed to know the status of the ligaments around the ankle joint. I suggest you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for a detailed evaluation and further management. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
