Broken Pinky Toe?

(2 discussions)

I hit my toes into a wall this morning and thought I just jammed them. A few minutes later as the pain started to lessen, I tried to walk and any pressure near my pinky toe killed. I thought I may have broken it so I “buddy taped” and am fine with the pain (alittle limping) but my question is how long is it going to hurt. I am in a wedding in 10 days and need to walk down the aisle and want to dance — am I going to be able to?

    I would need to see an x-ray to tell if your toe is broken. If it is, it is unlikely you will be comfortable in a dress shoe and be able to dance in 10 days. You may need to wear sandals.

    I can move it — it just hurts to apply pressure to it (ie – stepping down with all weight) If it is sprained – what should I do? I’ve iced it and it’s alittle less swollen, but black abd blue.
