A member asked:
When should i go back to a doctor regarding bone bruising of the foot? its been 2 weeks and there is still swelling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You haven't stated: What the injury was if there was one and what was done so far.... If your still in pain or symptoms have not gone away it would be appropriate to follow up after a two week period.
