So my foot problem is that I stubbed my little toe last night, and now I'm wondering if I broke it. It's still "painful" while resting, and it just seems like it's laying weird against my fourth toe.

Painful = me sitting and concentrating on whether it hurts or not. Dang it...was pondering about getting a pedicure before Sunday, too.

SCyclone will tell you to rub some Benadryl ointment on it. o_O

BC will tell you to go to the ER cause he digs hanging out there. :rolleyes:

KC will tell you to have it looked at by a real doctor*. :D

Boxster says tape it to your #4 toe cause it's broken. :oops:



* Note, you can do the doctor thing without losing your man card cause your a gal and don't have to deal with that stupid stuff.

It's a pinky toe; outside of some tape they really can't do much. I have stubbed toes that turned all sorts of purple colors. You just limp around until it stops hurting. I smashed my pinky finger and all they did was wrap it up.

I have only ever broken one bone in my body. It is my little toe and I confirmed breaking it the first time when I was a school kid and went to the doctor. They (a la Boxster) taped it to the next toe so I have never gone back when I have (unconfirmed) broken it again. It is now a crooked little thing that hardly has any flexibility at all.
Boxster and Velo have it right. The only thing they will do for a broken small toe is tape it to the toe next to it. Pretty much the only toe they will really try to fix is the great toe, because it is so vital to balance & walking/running.

Tape it, wear wide shoes (don't recommend open-toed, 'cause you'll just keep bashing it), and cushion it if you can. It will heal in a week or two.

I broke one of mine, and it looked like a fat purple grape for several weeks. Hurt like a *****, too. I feel for ya, @SaraV !
 
More on toe taping. Guy should use duct tape. Gals should use some nice white medical tape.

And, since toes and RTT.......

May have been a mistake showing LittleWx about peeing on trees....he did it at pre-school today.
Yup. We had to explain the difference between peeing on a tree when out camping, and peeing on a garden in front of a plateglass window where a bunch of church ladies were having tea...
