🦶 Toe injury after a fall, twist, or accidental hit? Don’t ignore the signs of a fracture.
A broken toe can cause more than just pain. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, tenderness, difficulty walking, and difficulty wearing footwear.
⚠️ Seek medical evaluation if you notice:
• Severe or persistent pain
• Visible deformity
• Significant swelling or bruising
• Difficulty putting weight on the foot
• Numbness or tingling
• Symptoms that are not improving
Treatment depends on the type and location of the fracture. Depending on the injury, management may include rest, ice, supportive footwear, buddy taping, and professional evaluation. Some fractures may require more specialized treatment.
Early assessment can help ensure proper healing and reduce the risk of ongoing discomfort or difficulty with movement.
