3 broken toes???!

3 broken toes???

I think I broke 3 of my toes yesterday. They have swollen up reall bad, are blue, they hurt terribly if someone just lightly touches them and my coach thinks they are broken. Im going to go to the doctor tommarow but I was wondering what I should expect if they are broken. Can they buddy tape all 3 or will I need a cast? Thanks

I almost cried but i didnt cry when i broke my nose either... it hurts realy bad i cant really walk on it

They will more than likely be buddy taped together. But they will probably also give you a 3D walking boot to help you be able to get around better walking with less pain and also if there is alot of swelling. It is not a cast, it is something that you can take off and on.

Depending on the location and severity of the toe fracture, the fracture may need to be reduced (put back into place) and splinted besides taping together.

A cast may be needed if a bone in the foot or leg is broken in addition to the toe.

Unfortunately you will not know until tomorrow and after x-rays are taken what will need to be done.

Best wishes.
