How can you tell if your toe is broken?
Question:
Answers:
It may well be. There's not a lot that can be done for a broken toe, either, except buddy splinting it, and even if it's not broken, that'll help it heal. All you do is get some first aid tape, hold your hurt toe in a natural, comfortable position against the toe next to it, and tape them together, tightly enough so that the hurt toe feels secure, but not so tight that you cut off blood flow. This will support the hurt toe and immobilize it somewhat. Keep it elevated, and take some ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin). If it's not feeling better in a few days, if the swelling hasn't come down, or if you have pain in anywhere other than the toe, go see a doctor.
The way a doctor knows is with X rays. Otherwise contact a psychic.
oops! has your toe(S) gone black bruised looking if so then yes you prob have broken them, also when you try to move them is it the worst pain ever! your toes swell because of the joints so water forms round to protect it, if you answer yes to two questions i have asked then you most def have broken or fractured them and you will need to have them strapped together to heal (no pot nec) if not then raise up to rid the swelling and in both cases take ibuprofen for the pain and swelling> hope your OK
OUCH!
Is all black and blue with some purple in there? Does it hurt really bad when you try to move it?
Then it is broken.
There really isn't much they can do with a broken toe. IF you go in they will take x-rays and tape it up and charge you an arm and a leg. $$$$
Tape the poor little piggy to the toe next to it. Because you hit two of your little piggies tape up three of them. It's the same thing that they would do at the hospital or the docs.
I've broken the littlest piggy on my left foot 5 times now.
My poor little toe is completely not hooked up any more to my foot. The little bugger is just being kept there with that cute chubby skin around it. I can even bend it sideways to a 90 degree angle. (It's a real party pleaser) hahaha
I'm just trying to picture someone running down the stairs and hitting the wall with two toes really hard. OUCH,OUCH!!
Take some aspirin or whatever you take for pain and be really cautious with those tender tootsies.
