Question:


Answers:
Not much you can do. Tape them together, take Advil, and ice them. That, and stay off your feet as much as is practical.

Other Answers:
ouch - not much you can do but wait, and of course be careful :)

Just try to keep your weight off of them. Theres nothing you can do about broken toes but let them heal on their own. I don't think there is much you can do but tape them together and try not to walk on them much. Hope you feel better soon.


Tie them together and hop around for about six weeks.


All you can do is tape the broken toes to a good one and wait it out.

The only thing you can really do at this point is to tape them together. If you don't feel that they are secured enough with tape alone, you can also splint them with popscicle sticks under the tape. I broke my little toe once and the doctor said there isn't much you can do about it but stay off it and let it heal. Take something like Tylenol, keep it elevated, hop alot to not use that foot. (lol).


I've always just taped them together. Then be really careful. I had an employer that let me just wear a sock or slipper until they healed.


for godsake go get it casted..or ur bones or it'd might join as they wish leading to false joints.get well soon

i broke mine and did nothing and now i cant move it at all.sigh. it was double jointed lol. just tape it u already set them so ur im better shape than i was. good luck hunny
