Can a big toe that was broken 3 years ago be fixed?
Question:
Answers:
Maybe yes, maybe no all depends on the break, healing ability, bone alignment and many other things. Yes it will have to be re-aligned or re-broken it could just be arthritis in the joint that will never go away. (Glusosamine will help repair the cartilage) Please see a doctor.
Other Answers:
Probably. It would need to be re-broken, then set.
The toe healed long ago. I am sure it can be repaired, but the question is whether insurance will pay? They'd probably have to break it again, but they could fix it if it's causing him problems.
Only a doctor can answer this after an exam, and x-rays.
As far as I know, it's totally possible to be fixed. Usually fixing it would involve re-breaking it again and setting it straight.
.it won't be fun.
a doctor should be able to fix it.
an orthopedic surgeon does surgery on mouths.
no - its too late you will need the chop Why on earth didn't he get it fixed when he broke it?
i think jilly willy was thinking about an orthodontist..silly billy.it doesn't pay to be sarcastic when you're WRONG, it can't be fixed, there is not a lot you can do with toes and fingers to be honest! sorry
I think I might have fractured mine a few years ago. The pain felt like how i'd imagine a blood clot would feel in my toe .. quite painful but then it would go after a few minutes or hours. It kept comming back every few days/weeks/months until I made a concious effort not to put any weight on my toe or over-flex it for 6 months. No tip-toeing to reach things, no crouching squatting on toes to get under benches, no jumping, and above all no accidental toe-stubbing on objects (I stopped wearing slippers & sandles and went for proper shoes to protect the toes more).
I think it's heeled now but I'm always careful. He will need surgery. It will cost thousands of dollars. Ouch.
