What to do
I has a supected broken rib(Lucky it was just bruised) and the fckers gave me ibibrufen and told me to come back if I cough up blood or am short of breath or I kid you not "If I experienced any severe chest pain"
I was incensed at first but then after some research realised that there is not much they can do, and I believe the same goes for toes. It will basically heal by itself and the treatment of a broken or a bruised toe is the same so there is no point in really X-Raying etc.
if you had private medical insurance they may "churn" and give you Xrays and follow-up consultations but basically if its starts hurting less its getting better

I broke 2 toes about a year ago failing down the stairs. One of them was point in the wrong direction.
The wife drove me to A&E and they sent me for an xray just in case.
It took months for it to repair properly, and weeks before I could wear shoes for work.Comment
