Goodmorning! It's my day off, but I have alot of stuff planned. Some of it is catching up on lost work around the house...some of it helping the girls catch up on lost school work. We still have one more carpet to rip out--the biggest one--the living room! Chip was a huge help last Saturday while we were ripping out carpets...he's going to help me

Poor Toe!

[flipping4jesus]

Yep, you're right that they'd tell you there's nothing they can do. You should ice it, though. There's lots of different methods, but my coaches and doctors usually did ten minutes on, ten minutes off. That is supposed to be right after you hurt it, but it will still help the swelling and even some of the pain if you do it even now. A doctor could prescribe you some pain medicine. If it's really bad pain, then I go for that. If I can tolerate it, I just go for a double dose of OTC stuff. I hope your toe feels better soon! I also hope that it doesn't slow you down too much! Have a great day :)

LOL...thank you! I did put ice on it and that has helped. In fact, I'm beginning to think that maybe it isn't broken, but very badly bruised. I seem to be able to bend it (very carefully) and it is not hurting now unless someone touches it! I have a pretty high pain tolerance, so I think I can deal with the pain with just advil or something. Thanks, Kim...have a great afternoon :o).
