A member asked:
I stumped my little toe almost 2 months ago and it almost hurts worse now then it did when i hurt it. is there anything i cam do or should do?

Rule out fracture : It's possible that the stumped little toe not healing for 2 months can be a fracture not properly treated. Little toe injuries are often neglected and most of them self resolve with time. You should go to your podiatrist and get a foot x-ray to rule out fracture. Get a piece of 1" adhesive wrap and buddy splint the little toe to the 4th toe to stabilize it. Wear a protective shoe or boot.
