3 weeks ago I stubbed my little toe (agony emoticon). Lots of bruising across foot and swelling of wee toe. Last week I went to GP as toe stllbjust as painful as ever. Doctor said it could indeed be broken, but even if it was, the treatment would be the same: ‘buddy-taping’ it to the next toe. Which he did for me, with my foot up on his leg. ?
Anyway, long story short, toe is still swollen and it’s very painful when I wear shoes, because of the pressure coming down on the top of the toe.
Anyone else had this problem? I know it takes 4-6 weeks for a bone to heal, but clomping about in my walking boots, which give the least pressure of all of my shoes, do nothing for my usual stylish appearance (not)!
