My heel hurts really bad
Last night I was doing a handstand and when i kicked up I slammed my calcanues on a shelf. It is my right foot and hurts on the outside near the back. When I hurt it I fell on the floor in pain. It hurt even when not putting weight on it. I am able to walk although it hurts and it hurts very bad to walk on my heel. It is bruised and a little swollen. It hurts super bad to touch the area.

⢠Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
