May want to see a doctor for an x-ray. If the toe is crooked, pain increases, or any bone protrusion, best to see a podiatrist, rather than a G.P

I have CRPS in my big toe. Mine started as a complication of multiple toe surgeries.

As inactivity of a limb is not a good thing for allowing CRPS to develop, it is important to come to a solution which will keep the toe sufficiently immobilized to allow it to heal, yet not restrictive to a point where the rest of the foot can't move.

I would stay away from ice if you have had or have CRPS. I agree with taking a higher dosage of vitamin C until the toe heals.

Good luck!
