Broken Toe

Well today while setting up a red ear sliders new enclosure I dropped one of the rocks on my toe . Of course it had to be the biggest and sharpest one of them all . I am pretty sure it is broken but what do you do for a broken toe ?

FERRETS:

I broke a few in my years (count is 6 so far) teachs me to run around bare foot chasing my nephew playing around, ouch

I called doctors even even went to hospital, end result not much can be done if it is indeed the toes. Simply wash the area, then dry and apply medical adhesive tape or stretch bandaids around the broken toe and attach a good toe as the splint. Easy off on the heavy walking on that toe and the support toe. This works but its pretty much the only solution, they don' t do surgery on toes or do much more than this practice.

Goddluck
