Why is my fractured foot, cuboid bone, and swelling causing such pain and swelling not going down?
-
My right foot was stomped on, and I mean full force by a work horse sized horse. The horse was standing quietly beside me when something spooked it. She jumped straight up in the air, landing square over the top of my foot, I then had to push her off me. I was wearing thick rubber boots, not steel toed as those can sever toes. I felt my foot swell and fill my boot, I knew this was coming so I pulled the boot off, which involves prying on a normal day. My husband tore the boot as far as he could down to heel, still had to pry out. Emergency room, said cubic bone fracture, send me home with a boot. No way that was going on, foot swelled 3 times its size. Cannot extend foot flat without pain radiating about where cubic bone is and to underside of foot where pad of foot is, below last 3 toes. The soft tissue on top of foot feels like tendons are broken, too tight, or not lying correctly. Foot is still swollen on top, draining sore that stopped draining and feels a hard type of squishy, not soft like water blister. Causes burning in foot.to bend ankle. Mri showed no compartment syndrome. 3 weeks later, 2 Dr. Visits, no cast, cannot stand foot wrapped as front of foot, front of ankle hurts severely. One of the worst parts is if I .lower .my foot at all, as if to step down, the pain and pressure almost kills me. I have been on complete bedrest 3 weeks, elevated, icing. What can I do to lower swelling? I have even tried clay poultice. This is awful as I can't get around at all!
