<human>: I fell on uneven sidewalk on July 3rd and hurt my knee: I had no problem walking and I didn t have much pain just bruising on my knee with tenderness. Now as the bruising is entering the purple/green phase I am starting to get a lot of swelling in my calf and ankle- what should I do ??
<bot>: Welcome to Chat Doctor I have gone through your query and understand your concern. You're swelling of foot and calf may be related to edema after injury. It is useful to keep limb elevated. Active toe movement will be useful to reduce swelling. Analgesic such as ibuprofen is useful to get relief from pain. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you. Wishing you a good health. Take care.
