Broken Toe...

I'm at home right now. Last night, I managed to stump my pinkie toe, not once, but twice. The second time did me in. It was during my 3 am bathroom trip, and I must have hit the corner of the dresser. I have never had so much pain. The worst part? I can't take advil!!! I called the doctor this morning to see if it was worth my money to come in to have an xray and all that jazz. She said that if it's a broken pinkie toe, there is nothing they can do. All the years of medical science, and there's nothing they can do for a broken toe?!?!? GAH!!! So I'm at home, with my foot propped up, and trying not to cry. I have to hop to the bathroom. Which, would be funny except that because my foot isn't propped up anymore, all the blood rushes to my toe, and I want to scream bloody murder because it hurts THAT BAD.

The best part though, is that I'm home... not at work. And hubby is sleeping in today. He's so cute when he sleeps. Then again, he's so grumpy when he wakes up, so I'm trying my best to be quite at the keyboard. :) So... I'll be here all day, bored out of my mind. What do YOU do when you're bored and can't go and do something?

That sucks! I remember stubbing my toe playing baseball when I was a kid and breaking my pinky toe. To this day it's still bigger thatn my other toes and occassionally causes me minor amounts of pain when the weather changes.

As for keeping yourself entertained AND imobile, movies are always good, sutfing the net, organizing photos, reading and sleeping...sounds like a great day to me!

i just got home from martial arts.we were practicing a one leg take down.when i fell my pinkie toe bent forward as far as it could possibly go and went under all my body weight(155 lb) then when i was trying to break a board i hit it with my pinkie toe twice.yes use sport tape or surgical tape and tape to the other toe by it.also take some pain reliever and just relax you'll feel better.
its broken so bad i cant even walk on my heel without pain.when i broke my toe the bone was sticking up.:( it hurts so bad
