Up date on Cream crackered.

[Caran]

After pond escapade and a painful night with a throbbing toe (re last nights post) I went to our local cottage hospital - briliiant no waiting seen straight away. We don't xray little toes but by the colour of it, it is probably broken. The nurse strapped it up to the next toe, said rest it, put your foot up and it will take 6 weeks for it to heal. What chance of resting (with or without foot up) for 6 weeks with a garden to landscape. Plus I don't sit still very easily, I have to keep going. Thanks everyone for posts last night and earlier today.

have broken both my little toes in the past caran, they were strapped to the next toe too, I just carried on as usual, needed to wear sandals until they healed, and at first they did ache a little, but I just carried on as normal!...

Yes they will heal ok and I know what you mean about not resting, easier said than done.

Take care now.

I'm the expert on breaking toes, am always doing it, only just healed from last one and had to wear Uggs in the heat as they were the only shoes I could get on. Time will heal, won't take long. Agree with Welshlibrarian.

Have you thought of suing your husband for failing to provide adequate foot protection? Check out your home insurance policy - could be worth a couple of grand.

I think I'm joking....

That's my problem, I never wear shoes at home or in the garden!!

Sorry to hear you have broken the toe caran...difficult to rest I know, just take every opportunity to do so when you can and just be aware when not that you have to be careful not to make your toe any worse. Good luck.
