Hello Doctor, From last week my footfalls on a nail but no blood flows then I went to doctors to suggest some medical treatment to get relief as my whole foot has been swallowed and a very much pain. So, please suggest some treatment to get rid of the pain.

?using elastic bandages (such as an ace bandage) to wrap your ankle, but not too tightly ?wearing a brace to support your ankle ?using crutches, if needed ?elevating your foot with pillows as necessary to reduce swelling ?taking ibuprofen (such as advil) or acetaminophen (such as tylenol) to manage pain ?getting plenty of rest and not putting weight on your ankle it?s also helpful to apply ice to the injured area as soon as you can to reduce swelling. On the first day, you should apply ice every 20 to 30 minutes, three to four times per day. Afterward, apply ice every three to four hours for the next two days. Your doctor may tell you to stay off of your injured ankle until the pain subsides. For mild sprains, this may take a week to 10 days, while more severe sprains may take up to several weeks to heal.
