A member asked:
I broke my little toe 5 weeks ago. but the bruising is still there and blueish grey. some pain after driving or prolonged standing or certain movements. is this normal? when will it heal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A fracture of the 5th toe may take 4-6 weeks for full healing. Did you return to full activity too early? If the toe is deformed or still swollen or remains quite painful or tender, consult a podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon for evaluation & advice.
