I think I broke a toe

    Broke my little toe a few years ago when the kid accidently caught my bare foot in a door. It turned deep, deep purple, and hurt like hell for a week.
    A doctor's office or clinic trip, obviously, would've been useless.

    Do be careful. The immortal Jack Daniel broke a toe one day kicking a safe. He was too embarassed to tell anyone about it, and gangrene eventually set in.

    The whiskey king was eventually done in by a broken toe. (It's amazing what you learn when you tour the distillery.)

    Anyway, I'm sure you're protected againt gangrene. Just be vigiliant, I guess.

    Yup, I'm limping like a Mexican soccer player who got kicked in the arm and it's purple. I'd say it's broken.

    And I have to coach soccer practice tonight ... :(

    Although, I empathize with kingcreole, I think it's absolutely hilarious there's nothing doctors can do about a broken toe. I mean, what century is this?

    Doctor: Well, we took some X-rays and I have some unfortunate news.
    kingcreole: Oh?
    Doctor: Your toe is broken.
    kingcreole: Now what?
    Doctor: I'm afraid there's nothing we can do.
    kingcreole: Are you serious?
    Doctor: As cancer. Now, I have to run along and drill a hole in this guy's skull so we can insert some RAM, which will give him the ability to fly while he solves trigonometry problems.

    Kind of what I thought.

    I put some ointment on it and dressed it with a gauze/tape, and be damned if it's tougher to walk now than before.

    Dr. Chef?

    Pain meds are always a good reason to go to the doctor

    When I was a freshman in college, I had an old guitar neck sitting in my dorm room.
    I was sleeping, and a friend, Tony Goomba, whakced me on the foot with the guitar neck, breaking the ring-finger toe of my right foot.
    It was a very unpleasant way to be woken up.
