Numbness and bruising of foot
I have hurt my foot last week from someone stepping on it and it bruised and swelled immediately afterwards. It hurt a lot but now not so much. The problem now is that the bruising has not gone away and there is slight numbness on the top of it which is itchy and bugging me and I don’t know what to do.
