Disfigured toe!

(3 discussions)

I broke my toe like a year ago and it did not heak right! It was my fifth baby toe. When I broke it I didn’t go about it the right way… I took some tyoe if ace bandage and wrapped it aound my whole foot so that my toe would no stick out. Well now it is overlapping my fourth baby toe. I just need to know how to treat it on my own so waht can I do. I wanted to know if I took the surgical tape and did it the right way, would it heal back to place or do I have to break it myself and how and then put the surgical tape on so that it can heal correctly… I really need some help because my prom is coming up and I want to look my best and my toes is one of my top insecurities!

Bicep/tricep pain

(3 discussions)

I have had pain in my upper arm for 3 months now. In early February I had a cellulitis flare up. I had an MRI which showed a small mass and an ultrasound showed it was fluid filled. My doctor and the surgeon both told me this was not consistent with any type of cancer.
The anti-inflammatory meds that I’ve taken really don’t seem to help. It’s a dull achy pain from my shoulder to my elbow but seems to “burn” or ache in my upper arm. They are now saying it could be tendonitis. I’m in the dental field and use my arm alot. What does this sound like to you?

Popped/Sprained ankle

(2 discussions)

Playing catch, I jumped up to catch the ball and landed on the outer edge of my left foot. The ankle rolled slightly and a pop sound/feeling occurred followed by pain to the outer ankle.Luckily there was ice available and I immediately applied it to decrease swelling. I was able to partially apply my weight to the bottom of foot as I limped to car. At home I elavated the foot and applied an ice pack to the outer area of foot for aboutan hour. Initially there was some slight swelling at the outer ankle, like in the area where the lateral cuneiform and cuboid bones are located(got names from footmaxx.com site). But several hours later with no ice I have swelling and hardness above the upper inner arch of the foot.
I plan on buying an ankle brace, but until then would it be okay to wrap the ankle with an ace bandage?Unfortunately, I don’t currently have insurance so unless I go to an ER I won’t get seen. I don’t feel that it is broken since I can point my toes outward in the foot as well as inward toward myself(although a little tight there). Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Jan.
