So sorry, HeyJoe. But a good reminder to the rest of us to always wear shoes. If we can....

Default You are in good company!

After my knee incident this winter, stepped wrong and broke a toe in March. Just didn't bother with the docs as I know the 'wrapping' and elevating routine by now. Besides, unless it's a clean break, fractures don't show on the films for a couple of weeks as new calcium fills in and ideally repairs.

BUT - I do have to compliment you on the talent it takes to get it to a 45degree angle! THAT IS SPECIAL. No Outstanding! - j

Oh did I say OUCH!!!!! Already? - j...again

Oooweee.... Sorry to hear about this Joe. It is so hard to believe we can even break things and still not feel them...

Default Been there done that!

Hi there, I've broken my toes before, banging them on things and not knowing it when I do it, but the next day realizing they are black and blue. I'm so careful to check my feet now when I bang them or drop things on them.

Just watch it to be sure it heals correctly.

Default Hey Joe

Stop it... Benifit of PN can breake and not know,but anything blue
or swollen insist on x-rays. I found out i had broken ankle and did not
feel it. I had to have it casted,still is. My ankle doen't hurt but have to
make sure it's healing and cast isn't rubbing.... Joe Sue
