Hi!
I am sorry to hear about your medical problems. If the foot was run over by the car, then there can be injury due to direct pressure or indirect pressure. So, the fracture, ligament tear or tendon injury can be at the top of the foot or at the back You need an X-ray of the foot in two views to detect if there is a fracture. You may also need MRI. Please discuss with your doctor. Take care!

The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
