Maybe - need more in: We would need to have a lot more information. The foot problem may not be related to the fall but you need to see your physician, get an evalaution. This can be a vascular problem in the legs. Did the fall cause weakness? Is there neurological injury? This is what we need to knw.

I fell on the stairs and landed on my left knee and foot. Now the side of my foot hurts a lot, if I need to walk on it the pain is like 9/10. It's also very swollen around the lateral malleolus. Does it just need rest or do I need a doctor?
