Yes I went to the doctor yesterday. At first the didn't have any openings but when I described what happened I had an appointment within an hour. :)

The doctor looked at my foot, moved my toe (whereas I yelped a little-->no more wuss comments from the peanut gallery;) ), looked at me and said Ewwwwwwww, looks nasty.

Anyway, the toe is not broken and he has me running hydrogen peroxide over it twice a day. Remember when people saidHydrogen Peroxide doesn't hurt. I say BULL!

Doing much better today, still limping around!

OMG! Yesterday I went to jump over the corner of our bed. My right leg was extended towards the floor and my left leg was tucked underneath me to clear the bed, or at most bump the bed (or so I thought).

Just when I was at the point of no return and my weight had shifted in mid-air to land on my right foot, the little toe on my left foot snagged on the king sized comforter.:( There was nothing I could do!!

I yelled and looked down at my foot. My little toe had been stretched so far away from the other toe that the skin had just plain ripped!:Q Blood was everywhere, I was howling and woke the baby up. NOT a good scene.

Anyway, the toe is not broken, but most of my left foot has turned black and blue today. It was not fun putting on my work shoes this morning!

Dude, that's fscked up. I did the same thing about 6 or 7 years ago. My little toe was sticking out at a 90 degree angle to my other toes. Man it was freaky when it was sticking out...I hobbled into my parent's bedroom and asked my mom if she thought it might be broken. She almost fainted...I took that as a yes. So, I went to the emergency room. They said it was broken in 17 places...basically all I had were bone fragments wrapped in skin. They were going to attempt to set it, but they were actually talking amputation, because if it healed into one big lump of bone, it was likely to break again since the joint wouldn't have been able to move. Luckily they were able to set it well enough, and they taped it up and it works fine today (as well as a little toe can work).
