my baby toe. it feels broken. i kicked my amp rather hard with just my baby pinky toe last night. and it still hurts i can barely move it, so ive decided that ive broken or dislocated it. i wish i had a better way to combat the pain than asprin.

Okay... so go to the doctor and get an x-ray and have it set. It should start to feel better quickly after that.

If it is black and swollen, probably broken. Ganja good for pain! I second Stinky, go to the ER! A broken bone, no matter what size, hurts like the devil. Get some oxycodone from Dr and you will have a happy thanksgiving. Get well soon (4-6 weeks)

Is it true that you break your pinky toe several times a year without realising?

Not sure where I heard that...

NO WAY! when you break a bone, it HURTS. You will know for sure. Nothing like the feeling of a bone snapped into, I'd rather have dental work with no numbing stuff!

Doctor's usually cant fix broken pinky toes...they are too small. My friends mom had hers broken and he told her to wait it out and I looked at yahoo answers and a guy said the doctor just gave him a special shoe pad. I'd say if your really scared go to the doctor but you'd be fine taping it to the next toe, wrap those piggies up haha, and it will heal. They won't re set it or anything though...too small of a bone.

yeah, i dont have insurance otherwise i would pay the 20 bucks and go to the doctor, but im poor, and its just the pinky toe. and yes, its broken im pretty sure now because i cant move it, and it is swollen, and has several strange bruises, signs of broken.

its all good, it hurts to walk, but i just dont put pressure on it and walk it off. and the way i see it anyways, i already walk with my pinky toe on its side, so i dont care how well it sets in terms of straightness, just so long as its not screwed.

When I was in nursing school I broke my middle toe. Had to go to school and walk it off..taking care of patients all day on concrete. I still can't move it years later and never will.

Go to the doctor and have it set. If you wait much longer will have to be rebroken.. or be like me and grit your teeth. I wish I could move that toe of mine. I'd pay a lot for a toe that moves. Why not go to a free clinic?

yeah ive broken it before, the doc just taped it to my "ring" toe and that was all he could do. broken bones suck man, i broke both of my arms at the same time skateboarding. i looked like a fuckin lobster with the casts

Just ice it baby, it'll get better eventually. Icing will help keep the swelling and pain to a minimum and it also tastes delicious.

Doctors don't set pinky toes,they just wrap them.

my daughter said that to me the other day, she's doing A level sport and sport injuries and at the moment they're studying foot injuries, so i'm pretty sure your right, but i think they are small hairline fractures and not a full break.
theres not much you can do with a broken pinky, apart from tape it to the next toe and use a ice pack to help reduce the swelling.
