A patient of 29 years old consulted us regarding her foot sprain, she told us 3 months back she had an accident and she got foot sprain, within few days her swelling and pain got relief, even she started to walk normally and wears shoes while going on walk but still after 3 months she had mild pain which increases with long standing and walking for long hours.
She told us that her work demands great exertion and it is not possible for her to sit for long hours as she has to walk long and stand for long hours.
Even her personal life was disturbed as her gynecologist said to avoid pregnancy till she got completely recovered because her foot was not enough strong to handle the weight during pregnancy and it might increase her complications.
We asked her to show us old x ray of foot when she was injured and all other reports if any. She told us that she also has less vitamin d3.
We suggested her few mild exercises to do everyday with medicine and asked her to take food enriched with vitamin d3 and iron, calcium. It takes around 5 months to strengthen her muscles and increases tendency of walking and standing for long hours.
