I fell down on the road amd it resulted in swelling after 1 hour. Got my xray done and it shows no crack or fracture. But according to my doctor a spce has been created between the bones of my left foot. He is saying it should get better in 14 days but with a plaster. Should I get a plaster or only crepe bandage is fine?

A plaster will give greater pain relief and stability to the ankle leading to faster recovery.
Crepe bandage is only effective for mild sprains.
Final decision is to be taken by the treating doctor and the patient together.
