What should I do for my injured toe?!


Question:

What should I do for my injured toe?

I dropped a full sheet of the green waterproof drywall on my left big toe, and it's very badly bruised & cannot bear any weight. Should I see a doctor or deal with it? I know the nail will fall off either way.


Answers:

It sounds like you broke your toe and should have a doctor take care of it. In the meantime splint your big toe by taping it to the uninjured index toe. Also put ice on it for 15 minutes at a time and keep your foot propped up. Also wear comfortable shoes like open toe sandals so your toe won't feel all squished.

Hope your poor toe feels better soon.
