This happened to me last year, but to both big toes, at a different basketball camp - I just bought new shoes and it was all better. This time it's only my right big toe. It is swollen from the knuckle up, and pretty badly bruised from just below the cuticle and up. I was running/pounding/jumping etc at basketball camp when my toe started aching really badly...it hurt to even move really...so I took off my shoes/socks and it was all bruised. Now, about 10 hours later, it's even more bruised and hurts more, whether I move or not. I've been icing and elevating it, took some advil, and I bought new basketball shoes and cushioning socks to use for the rest of camp.
I was just wondering if anybody could give me advice about what else to do to treat it, or what is going to happen...how long to recover, will it hurt even more, is it maybe something worse than just a bruise, etc. All advice is appreciated! Thank you!
