An angulated fracture is one in which the bones, once broken, no longer line up in the straight line they used to assume, and have broken into an angle. The fifth toe is the little toe.
big toe splint
probably not but you should talk to your doctor
It took mine around 4 weeks to heal but my mom didnt take me to the doctor til two weeks after i did it so i only needed a cast for 4 weeks but i would of needed it for 6.
You have to clean and dress the wound on alternate day till the wound heals.
Keep the weight off that foot, a bandage, and wait.
Three to five weeks
It dependes where the fungus is.usually a general physician can write a prescription for it.if it is in the toe nails better to go to a podiatrist
I broke my toe yesterday, went to A&E, got it taped up and on crutches. It's a spiral fracture in the toe next to the big toe. How can I shower/wash without damaging it more? I don't want to impede the healing as I need it to be healed in time for my holiday and it's already unlikely if that will happen.
Not always, your toe is purple because you have broken blood vessels in your toe and the blood has leaked out into your tissue. Your body will absorb this spilled blood in time and you can watch your toe turn all kinds of colors during this process. To see if you have indeed broken a bone and not sprained it, you need to have an x-ray.
There is no "cure" for a fractured toe, the toe needs to be set and wrapped so it does not move. A cast cannot be placed on a single toe and a foot cast does not help as the toe will tend to move each time weight is place on the foot. A crutch or cane can be used for a few weeks but care needs to be taken by the patient not to move the toe.
The toe has been numb for 3 days but hasnt changed color. I'm 30 weeks pregnant if that's relevant.
