Rest. Minimize activity to prevent secondary injury.
The pain is usually worst 2-3 days after the injury. Ice packing to the injured area for 20 minutes is suggested for next 24 to 48 hours to reduce pain and swelling.
Keep the injured limb elevated. Wear comfortable well-fitting shoes. Do not wear high-heeled shoes. Avoid massaging or manipulating the injured site.
Seek medical help if suffering intolerable pain or progressive swelling despite treatment.
