Hello, : Hello, it sounds like you might have both contusions and abrasions. I suggest elevating your feet and applying ice to help wtih possible swelling. Please clean the scrapes out very well and consider use of antibiotic ointment. Sterile bandages or dressings would also be helpful. If the wounds become hot, red, have drainage, or there is red streaking of fever, then you likely have an infection. From the way this injury is described there sounds like potential for some nasty stuff to have entered your skin - so you should check your tetanus status as you may need a tetanus shot.
