I just tape it to the toe next to it for awhile (after the ice pack routine). That's all the doctor will do most of the time anyway, and it's a whole lot cheaper when I do it *grin*.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17608579972739041880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-49392764709649486772011-07-01T23:35:37.082-04:002011-07-01T23:35:37.082-04:00OUCH!

I have however broken toes from walking into couches. 250+lbs? no problem. Couch? No such luck.<br />Hope the foot feels better.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01197789181776030907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-90287117159414407492011-07-01T14:17:25.910-04:002011-07-01T14:17:25.910-04:00Owie!!

The little toes are more vulnerable, and usually there's nothing to do but wait until it heals on its own. <br /><br />So sorry. I know how painful it can be and how annoying to try to walk. The one blessing is that it's summer, so you can wear open shoes without Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10029423500476995817noreply@blogger.com
