Supportive to start: Such injuries require you stay off of it and rest it. Ice packs are good for the initial 24-48 hours. Keeping the foot elevated will help with managing the swelling. Anti-inflammatories help as well. This should get x-rayed asap. The sooner the extent of injury is known, the better and expedient the recovery.
