A member asked:
I fractured and dislocated 2nd toe. joint still big and does not bend yet. 6 weeks later andstill numb. am i facing possible surgery or is it healing?

Sausage toe: The bigness could be due to residual swelling which could also contribute to the numbness and lack of bending. Based on the severity of the fracture, six weeks may not be long enough to effect healing. I think you need to have it reimaged and examined by a foot specialist.
