Low circulation after foot sprain

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

Severely sprained foot, not ankle, 2 weeks ago: went to urgent care, not broken via xray. RICE for the first 72+hours, and have stayed off of it via crutches. Just started being able to slightly bear weight on my heel. I’m finding that when I stand for 15+ minutes my foot turns a dark reddish color and has a slow blood return rate when pinching my big toe. I am also unable to curl my 3 littlest toes now

If there is no fracture in X rays, it is ligament injury. It will take 6 weeks to recover. Consult ortho doctor.
