Hey qlb,
Not sure that antibiotics are the answer to your problem as they are for infection such as from bacteria. Your foot hurting is probably more musculoskeletal having to do with the muscles, bones or tendons that move the foot. If you could describe the problem further, where is hurts, what kind of pain, and when it hurts, might be better able to make some suggestions for pain relief. Trying an over the counter analgesic with anti inflammatory properties maybe helpful such as ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve). Otherwise, you might want to have the foot checked by a foot doctor if the pain persists.
Best wishes,
Laurie

Hello thx for responding, yes the pain is coming from the top of my ankle where the topbof my foot and my leg meet but I put pressure on that area an it hurts but the pain hurtys worst in the morning an but hurts all day its still there as it has been since day one but where
I suspect that it is a tendon that is causing the problem. If the pain continues you might want to see a foot doctor and have the foot examined.
how important is a tendon will it heal soon but I think so too I need to go get looked at thx so much u were holding my answers I needed
Tendons will generally heal on their own in time, but I would definitely have it looked at to be sure. It could be any number of things.
It could be a minor sprain, heel spurs, or a bursitis. Fos any of these, do as Laurie Shay says. Have you tried wrapping your ankle for support? I had an injury 2010-2 sprained knees and an ankle. To build myself up I got really heavy work boots, as they supported my ankle too. I started have a pain like you're talking about. All of a sudden, I realized that the weight of my boot, when I reclined was causing the ankle pain- Now there isn't anyway for that to be your problem, but it's easy to strain, sprain, or pull muscles and tendons. After a few days, after you stop putting ice on it, start wrapping it in a warm towel or soaking it in pretty warm water to help the circulation.
Good luck-tell us what happens. Okay?
They pretty much have it covered take the ibprofen 800ml or aleeve arthritis stop any swelling. And ice it then warm. All you can do if its longer than a wk and not atleast most of the way better see the dr. Jaime}litmommag
