Did I break my toe?

Question

So I stubbed my pinky toe Tuesday morning early. I wasn’t able to put a closed toe shoe on and couldn’t walk properly all day. Today has been a little bit better pain wise, but it’s getting more and more purple, and the swelling is intense. I tried to get in with my doc but the first appointment was on the 9th so I figured I’d see if any of y’all have any experience with this?
I am going to the doctor so please don’t troll.

Answer

It definitely looks broken

Answer

Nothing you can do. Stabilize it with the toes next to it, rest and ice it.

Answer

Maybe but you can handle that at home. Tape it to the neighbouring toes and take ibuprofen.

Answer

I don't know but I'm wishing you a speedy recovery

Answer

Can you please update after going to the doctor? Lol I did the exact same thing months ago, and the same type of bruising & swelling happened, but I just felt too ridiculous to go to the doctor so I just didn’t, and it STILL has light pains when moved certain ways. I’m hoping I didn’t permanently ruin it by not getting any kind of cast or anything. If you don’t mind, I’d like to hear what your doctor says and whether or not you’re needing a cast!

Answer

Get some medical tape, tape it to your other toe and order a cast boot

Answer

I would use medical tape and take Advil or Tylenol for the pain until you get in with the doctor.
