Broken Toes.....ouch

I've broken two (maybe 3) toes, and currently have them strapped together. It happened last Friday, and after working all weekend, I have been able to rest the foot over the past two days.

But, they hurt - really hurt. Am taking paracetamol and ibuprofen type mediciation, and they aren't touching the pain.

Has anyone got any other tips to help with this?

I presume they were x-rayed so that they know that none of the fractures are displaced?

If they are all in place then rest and evelvation is the only cure.

4-6 weeks and they should be back to almost normal.

Crocs they are fab to wear whilst broken toes are healing.
