What can be the causes!? Should I consult or can I do something special?

Hello !

This swelling could be related to the wearing of inadequate shoes, the practice of certain sports (running, walking) or a problem with your foot.

To reduce the swelling, you can apply ice or take an anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen if you have no contraindications (to be sure, ask your pharmacist).

If your foot becomes painful, red, hot or more swollen, I suggest you go see a doctor. Also, if it doesn't get better within a week, you may want to see a podiatrist. Here is a tool to find podiatrists in your area: https: //piedreseau.com/cliniques/

Hopefully this answers your question,
