Sayed Saber Sadat Doctor: Hi,  As a first line management you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. We have to rule out possible causes like peripheral vascular disease and ligament sprain. If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
