Question

I stubbed it REALLY hard earlier...

Now its a lil purple..

Its a bit swolen..

it hurts to walk..

It hurts ALOT to even touch it..

What can i do..myself to help it heal??

Answer 1

OH!  foot fun!  Ice it for 4 hrs or so....long as U can stand it.  Then tape it to the third toe tight!  Do a good job and leave this tape on till the swelling go down a bit...........week or so.  If it's really broken gonna take 6 weeks or so to heal.  Keep it elevated whenever you can.  Keep it taped to the third toe until there is no more pain.  Ice it 3-4 times a day till there is no more swelling.  This yer first broken bone?  Try not to kick anything with that foot for a while.  

Answer 2

Unfortunately for toes there is nothing you can do.  You just have to try not to wear restrictive shoes and try not to bang it too much for 6-8 weeks until it heals.

Answer 4

you should go to the doctor to see if it really is because it could be a sprain or strain..  

Answer 5

If your toe is swollen, it's not broken. Broken never swells. You could see you doc though to get something for the pain, if you want get an ex-ray it'll reassure you.

because a dropped a big metal flashlight on mine a couple years ago

and it was just purple around my toe nail
