Amber Heard's Instagram followers are worried. The "Justice League" actress took to Instagram just before the weekend with what may have been a spin on the trend of "thirsty" pictures currently sweeping Instagram.

Amber's photo wasn't a lingerie one – that's best left to Kylie Jenner – but it was following the "thirst" terminology used by the makeup mogul just before the New Year.

The snap showed Amber and a friend posing by a sodas vending machine. The 33-year-old was striking a pose with a raised leg and wearing a short-sleeved and loose-flowing white dress.

Amber showed her sense of humor in her caption.

"Anyone thirsty?" she wrote.

Fans didn't need to zoom in to see that Amber's footwear didn't match. The blonde had a small-heeled sandal on her right foot, with her raised left leg showing one massive medical boot. Whether or not Amber has a broken foot (or any other injury) hasn't been clarified on the star's Instagram.

The cast-like boot that's usually worn to keep a foot immobile was picked up on by concerned followers.

Concerned fans quickly filled the comments section.

"Why are you wearing a walking cast?" one fan asked.

"How did she break her ankle??? Anyone" came from a fan taking a guess at the possible injury.

"What did you do to your foot?" was another comment, with: "Omg What is wrong with her leg" echoing the thought.

Elsewhere, fans showered their favorite actress with the usual love, with replies coming in English, Arabic, other languages, and emoji form. The snap also managed to rack up over 40,000 likes in one hour.

Amber Heard has been seen with an injury before. March 2018 saw the actress on crutches as she revealed having broken a bone on social media.

"Crutching MRI-chic," Amber captioned a snap of herself in a hospital gown. Another image showed the star with crutches and surrounded by friends.

A quick look through recent photos on Amber's Instagram does seem to suggest a fanbase who hadn't been paying too much attention. The foot boot was present in an update made for the New Year.

Amber continues to make headlines for divorcing and having filed a restraining order against ex Johnny Depp. The actress made very public claims that the "Pirates of the Carribean" actor had been physically abusive towards her.

At the end of December, The Blast exclusively obtained texts between Johnny and Amber's parents sent back in 2016.

Paige Heard texted Depp:

"It's the lawyers on both sides doing this not Amber. I heard the whole story very teary - if I could just talk to Johnny. She didn't want this. Friggin lawyers on BOTH sides!! This was not her idea, not her wishes. She was told she would be evicted and out in 30days if she did not do this."

She then added:

"Her dumb lawyer possibly as the only way she would have a place to live in 30 days. She DID NOT want to do this I swear to you. The lawyers are frigging things up."
