Have you ever...

[Alex.]

...broken any of your toes?
Just wondering as I think I have. And I can't be @rsed to go into casualty, as all I think they'll do is strap it up and say "Rest it" which I can't really do.

Any advice on how to cope with it? Or even tell how it's/if it is broken?








(Really random I know!!)

[Jack]

Go to casualty. At least they'd be able to tell you if its broken or not.

[Alex.]

But if it's not they'll say rest it. And if it is they'll strap it up and say rest it. :(

[novacabrio]

it could be broken so go and have a free cuppa who cares if they just strap it up and tell you rest it

[John]

Erm yeah, get it strapped up then rest! fnar fnar and all that! Have a few vodkas, just for medicinal purposes of course.

Didn't you mention a broken toe last week?

Probably is, don't bother waiting 4 hours in A+E with all the xmas drunks tho, just splint it with a lolly pop stick or similar and bandage then errr rest it, job done

It's the same "broken" toe Ash :(
My dad's bandaged it up as he's used to dropping steel on his toes instead of kicking pillars with them. :roll:

(again off topic, sorry untaimed girl) Yeah, clear as mud mark?

I broke and dislocated 2 toes, went to casualty, spent 4 hours waiting to be seen by a doctor and then was told 'yep they look broken, take lots of nurofen!!' No strapping-nothing so did it myself when I got home..just walk on your heal for a bit-look stupid but doesnt hurt!!

[Timmy]

cut them off

[Alex.]

Sensible Timmy. lol

Well the bandage fell off in my sleep last night. And they feel like they're clicking when I walk :confused:

[Iain]

You should probably rest it.

[Alex.]

But I don't do rest. Gr...lol.
It's annoying as I have to wear flat shoes, when I need to wear heels over christmas to partys etc. I'm sure all you guys have that problem!!lol

[Jack]

"I could be German, I like sausage"
lmfao? lol

[Matt2107]

If you think it's broken you should go to casualty.
The last thing you want is for it to heal naturally at a wonky angle thus leading you to walk in a way that makes it look like you have a pineapple shoved up your poo shoot.

[just vaux trev]

tape it to the next toe so it at least heals straight,
can't be to comfy havin 1 toe sticking up for the rest of your life,

[Alex.]

I walk like that usually!!

[scott.parker]

I have broke a toe when drunk once, and also when i use to kick-box (that ****ing hurt!)
you know if it's broke as it will swell right up,go purple and the skin goes tight as anything!

[Alex.]

Well it went blue, then the bruising spread above all of my toes. Now it's gone down and my toe is bigger then usual and it feels stiff.

It'll be ok!!
