Okay, so I broke my pelvis about 4 weeks ago in an accident,
and at first i didn't know (maybe because of the painkillers) but
now I have both chronic and acute pain in my foot (only left foot)
It's the typical burning feeling, pins and needles pain, acute pain
occurs when i change position(i.e get up, sit up, etc etc)
despite my left leg being colder than my right leg by a noticeable amount, 2 doctors i've visited ruled it out as pinched nerve as there are nerves running to the foot where my pelvis fracture is.
The question now is, how should i treat this? ice my back by pelvis area? or my foot area? i heard some people say use warm water?
thanks a lot in advance

o sorry, i meant as in like uhh they ruled out poor blood circulation and told me it was pinched nerve, it was a car accident side impact, i haven't asked specifically about spine damage but my back doesn't hurt at all, and i believe i had a checkup done on that as well. the accident was so bad (i was nearly unconcious) i was checked for pretty much everything, xray everywhere, internal bleeding, i was in that tube machine for a long time, neck, brain damage .. etc etc etc
