Well I got sent home from school cos in PE, I jumped on the springboard and landed with my big toe curled, then heard a crack, started to bleed. Anyway, idk if its broke or not, so my mum said she'll make a decision when she gets in from work. I can't walk on it or anything, so help

I think you're gonna die
no seriously the crack might of been the nail as it looks like your bottom nail has shattered and bled but I would still get it x rayed and what not to be sure IM NOT A DOCTOR i lost my licence in the monkey heart transplant to an 8 year o- not important
could put it in a spoiler
i dont really want to open a thread to see a full blown shot of your foot :(
Can you bend it? Try forcing it to bend. If you fail to bend it then eventually it'll seize up or whatever and you'll not be able to bend it again without loaaads of help etc :3
It's only a clean foot! And u honestly can't bend it without pain :(Quote:

So yeah I'd suggest getting some medical tape and just strapping it to your other toe. Keep trying to bend it every day, you don't wanna end up like me and have it impossible to bend your toe :P
As a medical expert, I highly recommend that the toe is amputated immediately.
On a serious note, none of us are medical experts, so book an appointment with a doctor, if it can't wait, try and visit a walk in centre.
I see the joke you made there: walk in centreQuote:

lmao toes look so funny, i love it
your feet look really clean as well
and they dont look hairy
but anyway
ye do what other people are saying and get it checked out anyway to be on the safeee side
have you gone to the doctor yet!!
Put that foot in a spoiler 😧
Theres nothing you can do with a broken toe anyway so like even if you go to the doctor they will only give you painkillers and confirm if its broken or not
Get well soon sky
He's not replied for a few hours.

i hope your toe is better soon but SERIOUSLY NO NEED
Just been to the doctors, prescribed me a few ibuprofen tabs (the xtra stong ones) and the nurse taped my toe up with the one next to it, and then I couldn't walk!!!! So I had to BUY crutches because hospitals dont give them out often. So I spent £25 on crutches :l all for a stupid PE lesson.
Not sure why you wasted money on crutches. The hospital don't hand them out very often because people don't actually need them nearly as often as they think. It's a broken toe. It's painful but it really doesn't require crutches.Quote:

-Keep yourself up to date with ibuprofen and paracetamol. Alternate between the two to get maximum pain relief (e.g ibuprofen, then paracetamol 3 hours later, then ibuprofen 3 hours after that, etc).
-Remember R.I.C.E (Rest, Ice Compression, Elevation).
-Wear tennis shoes or sandals instead of your regular shoe.
-As has been said, try to bend it each day to stop it freezing up after it heals.
-DO NOT STOP WALKING ON IT. The reason hospitals do not give out crutches to broken toes is because it means the toe is constantly resting. This will only result in your toe taking extra time to heal plus it may not heal correctly because it's not being used normally. Saying this, don't partake in particularly straining activities (like P.E, jogging, etc). Once the cut has healed, it may help to go swimming.
Nah you defo shouldn't have bought crutches. I know it's less painful using them but it won't make your toe any better. How is it now, is it getting any better?
