Sprain in foot
My son twisted his right foot and the portion between toe and the ankle on top side of foot swelled.
We applied ice pack but the swelling is still there.
What else should we do ?
He doesn't has that much of pain only while walking a light pain is there but he is able to walk.

There are some soft tissues called ligaments which support bones of feet. In twisting injuries they might get injured.
He may have more pain walking as thats a weight bearing posture.

Better to consult a pain management specialist. Till then you can continue to apply ice.
