A member asked:
Is swelling and skin discoloration common 4 weeks after a soft tissue injury to foot?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It can be: If you had an extensive enough injury, yes. If it is still painful see a podiatrist. Sometimes persistent swelling and pain might indicate a more serious or additional injury. Bruises fade in time and usually without event.
