Splint: In most cases of a non displaced fracture of a toe, tape splinting it to the next toe and using a hard-soled shoe or a doctor- dispensed trauma shoefor several weeks is all that is necessary; except for ice and elevation to reduce swelling. If an x ray reveals a displaced fracture, then surgical reduction could be considered.

Immobilization: Toe strapping and rigid surgical shoe. On occasion if displaced, it may require surgical reduction. Have it evaluated by a professional.

See a doctor.: You should see a doctor, get an x-ray to determine which bone/bones are broken and appropriate treatment. Surgery is usually not indicated.
