A member asked:
She has dropped something on her toes from head height and bruising came up immediately it is also slightly swollen do you think it could be broken?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Definitely sounds like she had sufficient mechanism to cause a fracture. While there is often not a lot we do for a fractured toe, she should probably be seen for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
