More info needed which toe? The only way to tell if it is broken is by an x-ray, it may just be stubbed or sprained. if you can visit the ER you will soon find out, and get instructions how to care for the injury. It just may be time to take care of it and time to get some rest and stay off the foot. and not to worry about your plans, by perhaps changing them, or rescheduling the plans until you feel well enough . Get well soon

hi Sorry approximately your toe, sounds sore. in the adventure that your little toe is broken your in all likelihood to locate it truly painful to weightbear and to have everyone flow it off the floor as properly. Fractures of the little toe are very painful yet no longer oftentimes controlled as you assert in incorrect way than relax and painkillers. If although you have fracture up into your metatarsal or a cuneiform (small foot bone) then this could be a diverse tale. Have a experience up your foot from the toe, is it in simple terms your little toe that hurts or greater up too? Fractures take approximately 6 weeks to heal (based on age and bone high quality and the absence of ailment) yet this could be somewhat longer in decrease limb fractures. This reported fractures will start to place down new bone develop (callous) after 3 weeks and the 6 weeks healing shouldnt advise 6 weeks discomfort! Your superb direction of action is to ice it on a regular basis (2 cases an afternoon 20 minutes p.c.. of frozen peas wrapped in a moist tea towell) and if its nonetheless no greater advantageous interior of a week and your nonetheless limping choose for that xray. Take painkillers as mandatory each and all of the superb

If it's not bruised and it doesn't have any abnormal bumps on it, it's not broken. Wether it's sprained or not, I don't know, but if you want to walk normal, just buddy wrap it (remember to put gauze inbetween the two toes), take pain killers, and wear shoes that don't squish your toes together (I suggest sandals). Don't waste your time going to the doctor though because they can't do anything about toes and they won't x-ray it because they don't want to expose you to the radiation for something they can't even do anything about. They'll just tell you to do what I just told you.
