I think I broke my pinky toe. My husband said he has broken his and the doctor s!


Question:

I think I broke my pinky toe. My husband said he has broken his and the doctor said he could just let it heal?

on it's own. Is this true? I have a doctor's appointment in about a week so I can have it looked at then. I don't know that I can get in to see anyone until then. Does anyone who has broken their pinky toe have any suggestions? Thanks.


Answers:

There's nothing a doctor can do for a broken toe. Unless it's the big toe they'll leave it alone. The only thing they'll do is tell you to tape it to the one next to it, use some ice, take motrin for pain if you have any, keep it elevated, don't wear tight fitting shoes like sneakers, and don't walk on it too much. It'll heal itself with time. Hope this helps.
