Below: Depends on the site of the fx and if there if any displacement. It is impossible to give instructions without seeing the XRAY.

TFT sandwhich.: I prefer to use a small piece of semi-firm foam as a splint. Sandwich the foam in between the 4th an 5th toes and then wrap the the toe-foam-toe sandwich with either tape or a coban type elastic bandage. Ask your physician for directions.
