Imobilize: You need to be evaluated. If it is a non-displaced fracture you may need to splint the toe and use a fracture shoe.

Tape it: Tape the toe to hold it stable and buddy tape it to the next toe. Try to wear a stiff shoe that does not bend easily. If the pain persists after a few days, see your podiatrist.

See a Podiatrist: Broken big toe is usually more complicated than other toes. If break is out of alignment, will need to be realigned. May need splint, cast and/or cast shoe. How do you know it is broken.? See a podiatrist.
