Pain medication: If the 5th toe is not deformed you may have sustained a non displaced fracture.Keep weight of the toe. May see your doctor.

Tape to 4th toe: You may have a broken toe. You'll need an x-ray to know for sure. In the meantime you can reduce your symptoms by buddy taping to the 4 th toe. Put a piece of gauze between the toes nat tape them together. A shoe with a stiff bottom that doesn't bend easily will help as well.
