A member asked:
I think i may have fractured my toe about two days ago now. if i described the injury, could you confirm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not 100% confirmable: To absolutely confirm, you need an x-ray. In the meantime, buddy tape the toes and wear very supportive , flat, hard-soled shoes if possible. If the pain goes away within a week or less, it probably isn't fractured.
