I broke my toe a while back and it hasn't healed at all. It's been over 3 months and still hurts everyday and I don't know what to do. Can anyone help?

Go to a doctor? If you don't want to do that, get a boot that immobilizes it and wear it for at least 2-3 weeks, maybe a month.

I saw a doctor and they said there isn't anything that they can do for a broken toe, but since then I expected it would heal on it's own and hasn't

oh okay my b. is the recovery timeline not matching what he/she described? if so it might be good to see them again and make sure everything is good to just keep waiting on. ive had a couple injuries that i made worse and prolonged by trying to just push through them

Tape it to the toe next to it, like you would a finger. Other than that a walking boot is your next option. Broken toes suck, have had a few myself. Vibes for a speedy recovery.

Probably depends on your age and the type of fracture. We had a patient in the ED recently that ortho reduced a toe fracture (sounded gross cuz they cut the nail and nail bed back to get to the bone 🤮). Regardless go see a doctor. Literally can't do anything without an exam.

So you think NS will solve this issue? You sound like a spoiled bitch that's used to having everything fixed for you right away.


Here's some advice, deal with it, cunt.

I feel like sometimes you try to hard to get people mad and get negative karma. It’s not that serious man I don’t really understand where you got the spoiled bitch from, but if that’s how you feel go for it.

You just need to let it heal. Super easy. Just don’t walk on that foot for a couple months. Have you tried walking on your hands?

Go to a different toe doctor and ask for oxycontin.

I second this

you won't notice your toe in a couple years when you're in heavy opiate withdrawls!
