WE ARE BROKEN

Archive for the ‘broken steel’ Category

There is not normally much to do for a broken toe.  Doctors rarely put fractured toes in cast or decide a patient needs to undergo surgery.  That said, fractured toes should not be left untreated.  There are several steps you can take at home to help your toe to heal quickly.  

As soon as you notice the injury, begin icing the foot.  Apply ice to the injured area for 10 to 15 minutes, and then give your foot a 10 to 15 minute break.  A doctor should evaluate fractured toes as soon as possible.  Though they are often considered minor injuries, broken toes can lead to more serious complications such as permanent foot deformity or chronic foot pain.  Many people who shrug off a fractured toe at the time of injury, end up nursing their injured foot for the rest of their lives.  Think of it as an investment for healthy, pain-free feet for years to come!

After getting a diagnosis, try to stay off the injured foot as much as possible.  This is especially true for people whose occupations require a lot of standing.  Teachers or lawyers, for example, may need to modify their usual routine for a couple of weeks in order to give the toes a chance to rest and not aggravate the injury.

Wear comfortable, supportive shoes while you are healing.  Covered shoes are actually a better choice than sandals (although sandals may seem more comfortable) because they protect the foot.  Look for shoes with a wide and deep toe-box that will not cramp or put unnecessary pressure on the toes.  People who spend time in a hazardous workplace may find a pair of steel-toed boots helpful when it comes to protecting their injured toe.  

Elevate the foot at night.  You do not need a fancy contraption to do this, just a pillow or some folded blankets.  By keeping the foot elevated as much as possible, you will decrease the amount of swelling.  

Finally, continue icing your injured toe regularly for up to 20 minutes at a time.  You will want to ice the foot more often in the beginning of your recovery process to help the injury heal quickly and reduce swelling.  

Be warned: broken toes (like most broken bones) take about six weeks to fully heal. The more you do early on, the sooner your feet will be back to normal.  Check back with your doctor if pain or swelling persists for more than 6 weeks.
