Answers:
I've broken toes before, and honestly, you can handle it better than a doctor can!. Doctors can't do much for broken toes!. They're just going to tape it to the next one so it heals as straight as it can!. You could probably do a better job since how tightly you tape depends on your pain tolerance!. A doctor would just tape blindly!.

Just remember to keep the broken one as straight as you can when you tape it, otherwise it will heal in an unsightly curl (the last two toes on my right foot curl under because they weren't taped straight enough)!. Other than taping it, just be careful walking on it!. We use our toes for balance, and it's not until we've hurt them that we realize how much we need them!. You could potentially re-injure your toe if you're not careful enough throughout the healing process!. Also, take some ibuprofen or some kind of similar pain reliever!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The doctor can't do anything for your toe anyways, even if you do go to see him!. Take ibuprofen for the swelling and interchange with Tylenol!. If you tape it to the second toe it will work as a splint, or you can splint it if that feels better!. Ice it and elevate and wear a slipper so as not to bump it on anything and aggravate it!.

Wrap the broken toe and it's neighbor together with tape!. This is called buddy taping!. Your toe should heal after a few weeks!. Unless you have a compound or complete fracture, there is probably no need to go to the doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

What you should do is tape it to your index toe and wear flipflops or open toe sandals all the time!. Also try to stay off your foot as much as possible!.

Hope your toe gets better soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
