There's not much else I can do. I hope my shoes fit after it's healed. I'll be crying, otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1821453 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 23:24:04 +0000 Anonymous 1821453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ouch! Be sure the toe heals straight. Over 50 years ago I broke that same little toe. It STILL is a huge consideration when buying footwear as it healed not quite straight. I need a half size larger shoe on my left foot much of the time. Not being able to wear sandals any more makes it all harder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819801 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 14:01:24 +0000 JAileen 1819801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your sympathy, ladies. I bought paper tape last night at CVS for taping my toes together. I had been using Scotch tape, but it made an annoying crinkling sound when I walked. I'm sure my husband expected to go hiking this weekend, but I don't want to. The thing that kills me is that I have some sandals I just bought and still haven't worn. The Bernardo sandals, however, are great for leaving my toe alone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819746 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 09:11:38 +0000 bella 1819746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ouch! that looks incredibly painful. another vote for Birkenstocks (Gizehs). I practically live in mine all summer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819615 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 15:34:47 +0000 Anonymous 1819615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never broken my toe, thank goodness, but I once severed the entire ligament of my left ankle. I had to wear a boot and use crutches for 5 weeks. I don't know what to suggest with the toe, except to say that whenever my big toe hurts (shooting pain), I like my Danskos because they prevent my toes from bending. If you could find a thong with a sole like that, it would probably work well. Good luck! I hope it mends fast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819612 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 15:16:17 +0000 JAileen 1819612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you very much. The sympathy helps a lot. Yesterday I took the dogs for a very short walk. I wore the Bernardo sandals and had no problems. Yeah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819459 Wed, 28 Jun 2017 21:09:44 +0000 Jane 1819459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks soooo painful.&nbsp;Nice nail varnish.

I was going to recommend some open front style sandals like a birkentstock or a wide slide. Hope it heals quickly. Keep it elevated above your heart whenever you can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819349 Wed, 28 Jun 2017 14:04:00 +0000 JAileen 1819349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, ladies. It did hurt like the dickens when I broke it. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy did it! Now it doesn't hurt too much, but I kept it elevated as much as possible yesterday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819331 Wed, 28 Jun 2017 12:53:57 +0000 Suz 1819331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ouch!

I was thinking some type of Birkenstock (whichever feels most comfortable for your poor toe) might work too.</p> <p>Wishing you a speedy recovery! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819274 Wed, 28 Jun 2017 10:30:24 +0000 Bijou 1819274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sending healing thoughts...that looks very painful and unfortunately so easy to do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819192 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 23:13:22 +0000 cindysmith 1819192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Holy cow, that looks painful!

I was sub-letting&nbsp;an apt for the summer, got up real early to go to a sort of Woodstock-lite rock concert weekend and didn't want to wake up my roommates so didn't turn lights on. I did NOT go to the doc but went on the weekend anyway, and had to wear closed shoes&nbsp;because it was cool and rainy.&nbsp;My little toe hurt a lot in those shoes&nbsp;and took months to heal completely.&nbsp;Angie's advice is right on...sandals for a while. Be careful&nbsp;not to re-injure it while it heals...that is the WORST! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819074 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 15:37:48 +0000 rachylou 1819074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Owwie owwie owwww! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819069 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 15:01:07 +0000 Angie 1819069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have pretty feet.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819065 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 14:57:20 +0000 Angie 1819065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOUCH. You have my sympathy. This is sore, and very inconvenient. (((HUGS))). 6 weeks, and sandals. Thank goodness it's Summer.&nbsp;</p> <p>I know exactly how this feels because I've done it too - on holiday in London going to the loo in the night and stubbing my toe on a suitcase. It was Winter and I had to wear closed shoes and socks. Very sore and AWFUL. (Big toes and little toes are the WORST to break because they hook). Limped all the way back home to Seattle. Went to the doctor who gave me that dreaded boot - which I did not wear. I cancelled my client apps for a month and hibernated at home. After 4 weeks I could wear VERY comfy socks and boots, and things got better. Felt perfect after 6 weeks.&nbsp;</p> <p>Hang in there. Sending healing thoughts. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819064 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 14:54:40 +0000 Diana 1819064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ouch! At least it happened in summer when you can wear sandals, right?</p> <p>When I broke my little toe, I found that only thong sandals worked because they don't contact the toe at all. But get some with support. Don't do what I did and wear flip flops the whole time. I think that was the original cause of my plantar fasciitis.... both the non supportive shoes and the fact that I was putting more weight on the non-injured foot. </p> <p>Birkenstock Gizehs (I think, the ones with the thong anyway) would be a good choice if they fit your feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819058 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 14:35:49 +0000 Anonymous 1819058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh - ouch! &nbsp;Arizona style Birks? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-i-spent-three-hours-late-last-night#post-1819053 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 14:22:18 +0000 Tina 1819053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ouch!

The care was very good, once I got it. We got home at 1 am. I'm trying to think of what sandals I can wear. </p>
