Ugh.... I think I fxked my toe!

To make a long story short, I fell on my left big toe. It folded inward, bending naturally. Now it hurts like hell whenever I move it, and it's kind of dark under the nail. Help me!
EDIT: No blood, but it's kind of red too.

Go to the doctor and get it checked out, stat.

I doubt if it's going to be better by tomorrow. Sounds like you nailed your toe good. I've stubbed my toes hard and dropped stuff on them, so the least you can expect is that it's going to swell and make you gimp around for a while. If you can move it, then it's probably not broken. However, IANAD (I Am Not A Doctor).

I can move it, but I can't fully bend it to 90* even using my hands. It just kind of folded under... However, if it tries to bend downwards at the middle joint... *PAIN*

Save your money. The most a doctor will do is x-ray it, say "yup, it's broken", wrap a little tape around it, and give you a huge bill.

If you can still move it (without your hand) it's probably not broken...probably a sprain. Put ice (or a bag of frozen peas) on it.

Ok... any theories on healing time? It's kind of swollen now though...

Couple of weeks probably, depending on how much time you spend resting it.
