No, see doc!: You need to see your doc and find out why this happened. You may have gout, for example, or another problem that needs treatment. If you have pain your are not yet fully healed and you need to find out what is going on so you can get that way! In the meantime, avoid activities that make it hurt, if possible, to give it time to heal. Happy Holidays.
