The foot pain is not swollen, and it is applied with hot or cold water

Hello, if it is within 24 hours of the injury, you need to apply cold or ice, and after 24 hours of injury, you can use a towel to warm the affected area. To put it simply, when you have just sprained, you can quickly rinse with cold water or apply ice packs to reduce pain and avoid bruising and swelling caused by rapid blood clotting. From the next day, you can take a hot compress regularly to speed up blood circulation and achieve the purpose of reducing swelling.

The first thing to look at is the cause of the disease, whether it is internal pathology or trauma. If it is caused by an internal lesion, it is recommended that you go to a specialist hospital for diagnosis. In general, problems like yours caused by sports injuries in daily life can be dealt with by yourself, of course, provided that there is no substantial injury to bone or cartilage and ligament (such as bone cracks, fractures, cartilage fractures, ligament tears or ruptures), for sudden pain, there are no bones, cartilage fractures, fissures and ligament tears and ruptures, and there is no open wound in the injury

1. Early stage: refers to the acute inflammatory period of tissue bleeding and local signs of redness, swelling, pain, heat, and dysfunction within 24 or 48 hours after injury.

2. Medium-term: 24 or 48 hours after the injury, the bleeding has stopped, the acute inflammation has gradually subsided, but there is still local bruising and swelling, granulation tissue has formed and begun to absorb, and the tissue is being repaired.

3. Late stage: the injury is basically repaired, and local signs such as swelling and tenderness have been eliminated, but the function has not been fully recovered, and the pain is still felt during exercise, and the soreness and weakness are still felt. In some severe cases, the wound is stiff due to adhesions or shrinkage of the scar.

Restrictions on activities, etc.

In the early stage, cold compresses should be applied as soon as possible when the injury occurs to prevent the local exudation from increasing dramatically, and then the injured part should be pressurized and bandaged, and the injured limb should be elevated at the same time (also to prevent the increase of exudation), and the injured limb should be fixed to prevent excessive exercise from causing further injury and aggravating the injury. In the medium term, you can use external application of new wound medicine (to the hospital specialist, it is best to find some well-known old Chinese medicine practitioners, some of their prescriptions are indeed very effective and effective). In the later stage, active assistance should be carried out, such as local hot compresses, physiotherapy, local massage, plus appropriate, slight sexual exercises to prevent local tissue adhesion and promote the recovery of the function of the injured limb.

In short, if you lack the knowledge and ability to operate in this area, it is best to go to the hospital and ask a professional doctor to deal with it for you.

Your current situation, as you see in what I wrote for you, is already in the advanced stages of damage.

If it is an acute injury such as a sprain or fall, then it is necessary to use a soft ice pack for 24 to 48 hours, and then you can use a soft ice pack to heat up and apply a warm compress. If it is a chronic injury such as rheumatism, then a warm compress is sufficient. When applying cold or hot compresses, you need to use a towel to wrap the ice pack before applying, if there is a wound, you can't apply it directly to the wound, you can only apply it around the wound.
