A member asked:
I hurt my big toe playing volleyball. its been a week and its not getting better. could it be sprained or cracked? how can i tell?

Yes: Yes, you could certainly have injured the soft tissues of the toe or even sustained a fracture. An exam and possibly an X-ray would be the best way to really tell the specific nature of the injury.
