Hurt Toe? OWWW!!!?!
Question: i need a diagosis and a way to fix my problem. my problem is: i tripped running up the stairs this morning, and i thought i was okay, but then 15 minutes or so later, my big toe was hurting alot. it is an aching pain when i walk, but i went through the rest of my day anyways. the pain isnt too bad, but its enough to mention on yahoo! anwsers. i wont tell my dad because then i might have to miss school to go to the doctors. i dont take pain killers, because im a health-nut veggetarian. hope this is enough info for people to answer regarding. thanks,

you can try elevating it, putting ice on your foot. (not right on your toes). and, you can wrap it. compression can help. (if you can..may be hard with a small toe) if its broken, though, you should tell your dad. it may just hurt for a while because its jammed.
Just watch it it may just be bruised but if it swells up or continues to get worse you may want to try a natural path doctor (the common family doctors are crap most of the time) .
I dont blame you for not wanting to take pain killers those things can mess ou up! I dont believe in them, You should try icing your toe though.
