Taping: Sorry to hear, it's not likely to be anything serious but keep an eye on it. You may benefit from taping (buddy splint to the other toe with cotton between 4th & 5th toes) and rest. Although Acetaminophen is a great pain reliever, you may also need an antiinflammatory medication such as Aspirin or ibuprofen. Hope this helps.
