Presentation transcript:

Advice Toe Fractures You have fractured a bone in your toe. The fracture has occurred in a part of the bone which normally heals well without problems. The pain, tenderness, swelling and bruising you are experiencing in the foot should gradually settle over a period of several weeks. During this time, you may find walking on the foot painful - it may help to walk on the heel initially and wear firm supportive footwear . You may be provided with a support for the foot in the form of bandaging , strapping or a removable boot. If required, you may be provided with crutches if needed . You may walk on the foot as much as pain allows, and if you have been given a boot should gradually discard it over 3-5 weeks as the pain settles. Most injuries heal without any problems - however it may take several months for your symptoms to settle completely. Occasionally the fracture can continue to be painful, even after several months. If you are still experiencing significant symptoms after several months, please phone the fracture clinic helpline as listed below for further advice or visit your GP. Should you have any worries or concerns following discharge from hospital, please contact Virtual Fracture Clinic Helpline : (answerphone) 0113 3926991 (9.00am until 4.30pm, Monday to Friday)
