Easy Does It.: Well, lets see. There area about 100 ligaments in the foot. Just about all of them are stretched every day with little or no consequence. Without knowing which ligament or at least the general location in the foot it is located in, it is difficult to be specific as to your prognosis. A stretch is not as bad tear, so things may not be quite as bad as you think. Call the doctor for instructions.
