A member asked:

I hit my little toe on the table, it hurts and is blue, i'm afraid it might be broken... do i need to see a doctor or will it heal?

See doctor: Should be examined and x-ray to rule out fracture, dislocation or resulting circulatory condition.

Depends: If the toe is not deformed or disfigured then it will probably heal on its own.
