foot sprain
(3 discussions)
I sprained my foot 8 weeks ago. Swelling is on and off. I still can’t walk very well and can’t wear shoes. X-ray was performed-no broken bone found but pain is still here from moderate to severe.
When can I possibly return to normal walking and running? When will my foot get well again. Do u think there’s a need for surgery.
BTW, I got my sprain from a fall from a height of 4 ft. high.

Just because X-rays are negative does not mean nothing is injured. Ligaments and tendons do not show up on an X-ray, but do on a MRI. If you are still hurting, have your foot reevaluated.

Nah, I don’t know, much but, I have the same thing, and the doctor said to take Anti-imflamatoris, Ibuprofen.
