Hi, Usually ligament tears will be there in Ankle rather than foot.
- These ligament tears if becomes chronic(old) will affect the associated joint motion.
- As you are referring its as a foot pain clearly, better wear a MCR chappals while walking (Even inside the house and other pair of it while going out)
- Another way is immersion in luke warm water for 15mins thrice daily atleast for 10days.
- Tablet Etodolac 400mg twice a day for 2weeks,if intensity of pain in more.
Next Steps
Just check if there is any instability (fear of slipping / falling down) of your ankle. If so you may need a MRI scan of your ankle - try to get your ligament repair.
Get me back if you have any queries to share and information regarding your problem.
Take care
