Bunion: Try purchasing a bunion splint. This will help pull the toe back to its normal position.

The question : Is not clear. How do you know the foot is broken? Which bone is broken? Many people have a big toe that turns towards the lesser toes, this describes a hallux valgus deformity (bunion) that can occur without a break.

If it's broken: You'll need to see if the fracture is displaced or severe, but usually off-loading in splint and crutches is called for if its a fracture. If it's a severe fracture, you may need surgery to repair the broken bones. Buddy splinting may actually make it worse because of the displacement. Good luck.
