Pain in left leg
I hurt my 4th toe in left leg a year ago. Immediately the whole leg was swollen and the finger turned purple.
Did an xray after 5 days,and Dr.did not interpret it properly,so the fracture was left untreated.
When pain did not subside went to another Dr. after a month or so. He said care had to taken in the beginning itself. Now it's all self healing.
Now after a year I still have pain in the finger and also my ankle bone and foot (side that touches the ground). The pain has increased uptil the knee now. I can't stand or walk for long. I feel stiffness when I bend my foot.
What could this be,plz help.
