MRI for toe sprain instead of xray

2024-02-19 20:07:54
30f. I got my toe bruised it got swollen and unable to bend. It was less swollen I the start when I made movements it turned black and swollen around some part of feet. Should I go with Xray or can I get MRI done instead. I do it want to expose to xray radiations as I have history of Ct Scans and Xrays multiple times unnecessary. PLZ reply thank u

Initial investigation for this kind of injury  is a simple X ray. But if you are so much concerned about radiation and also prior history of radiation exposure you can go for a MRI scan. MRI is absolutely safe in this regard.
Next Steps
Avoid standing for long periods at a place.
