Will post in more detail about my situation later but right now I really need relief, it hurts and my toes are starting to go numb please any suggestions like common OTC or something?

Like others have said, elevate them. Maybe also try arnica cream. Get well soon 🖤

@HannibalAteMeOut arnica cream is one of those "woo woo" suggestions that actually work 💯

@HannibalAteMeOut I’ll make note of that, too.

@HannibalAteMeOut right? I'll try anything that isn't actively harmful for relief and that is legit

@HannibalAteMeOut what’s arnica cream? Never heard of that

@Zeuro the pharmacy can make it for you but I guess you can find store bought too, it doesn't require prescription at least where I'm from. It helps with many things so it won't be a waste of money I guess.

@Zeuro I get mine from a Mennonite farm that makes their own but my local health food stores carry their own brand. it is great for any kind of swelling/inflammation.
