so if you think there's a chance you broke your pinky toe, do you get an xray or nah bc it's useless anyways

also would your answer change if the next toe hurts too just not as bad

No. Doesn’t matter and why radiate yourself? I’m definitely not a doctor.

im thinking no, too. it just hurts 😭😭😭

Ya it’s shitty.

you're a doc now, dr. sikto. next up, expert.

Ask me anything.

i'm in too much pain to think of a clever question πŸ˜‚

Times running out. The ask Sikto anything clock has started πŸ˜‚

tell us a short snippet of one of your wildest stories?

πŸ–• i mean πŸ‘†

Shoot, missed that!

Times running out.

There is nothing the doc can do if you broke your pinky toe, they just wrap it up and let it heal on its own.

Not sure about other toes.

I think it'll survive too πŸ˜‚

You mighty have to do something with your nubbin though.

πŸ˜‚ your fascination with nubbins fascinates me

You’re the first person I’ve met that has them! πŸ˜‚

It makes me happy to know that I’m the one that taught you about them.

Dr Sikto, nubbin expert

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I still don't properly know wtf a nubbin is. p sure you have one tho bc I had never heard of it before YOU!

It’s an extra finger in the side of a hand, but just like a little nib. No knuckles or nails or anything. Can happen with toes toe.

It’s also a sign of being really fun at parties.

no nubbins defo not fun πŸ˜‚

What's a nubbin? πŸ˜‚

see! even butcher doesn't know! Sikto has a nubbin idk an extra appendage of sorts πŸ˜‚

Ew, even I’m not into that 🀣🀷

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ whoa prince

Not into nibbins or being fun at a party?

prince is defo into fun just not your weird nubbin πŸ˜‚

Unless it looks bent no need for a doc just tape it together. I have broken a little toe twice. First time it was right angles. Doc just straightened it then strap. Next time no bend so I just taped it to next toe. All good

this seems reasonable. thanks bevo πŸ«‚πŸ’œ

Also can confirm it hurts like a MF.

yes it does! i'm putting ice on it and that actually hurts too fml πŸ˜‚

Is it bruised? Put some arnica cream on it.

I had a toe injury last year and thought it was broken because it hurt so badly and lasted quite some weeks. But if you can bend it, it probably is not the bone.

But I don't know if pinky toe is actually bendable.

what i've been doing so far. it's swollen to twice the size of other one and def swelling around base. hurts to bend and cannot put any pressure in it when walking but doesn't look bent lol haven't taken any other pain stuff like Advil, yet. I might. πŸ«‚πŸ’œ

I'm guessing being able to bend means it's not bones. But I really don't know much when it comes to that.

I know you mentioned, but I forgot, how did it get injured?

You're probably already doing this but don't put any pressure on it. No socks, no tight shoes.

lol the story is something that would only happen to a bohemian πŸ«£πŸ˜‚

πŸ˜‚

so I was pole dancing and really excited bc after a few days rest my upper body strength is next level. and I was spinning like hella fast bc it's fun. my roommate has this chair close-ish to the pole that I usually move. but I was in the moment, dancing like no one was watching, not thinking, I try not to do that while I dance. I did this this lay flat thing and even tho that slows my spin I was still spinning p fast and my foot whacked the edge of the wooden chair, like hard. my first pole injury πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜‚

Awwww nooooooo πŸ«‚πŸ«‚πŸ«‚πŸ«‚πŸ«‚

Oof… might not be broken but I bet it hurts a lot 😣😣

I don't think it's broken anymore but yes def hurts

I admire the dedication.

I only giggled a little, I promise πŸ˜πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

fucker πŸ˜€πŸ˜‚

it's so me tho, right fml πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚πŸ˜­

πŸ˜‚πŸ™β€οΈβ€οΈ

You’re awesome. Hopefully it heals up and you’re….back on the pole?

It sounds wrong but you get it 😎

Ouch!!! Broken toes suck, broke my pinky toe last year. Nothing you can really do except take it easy. Hope you are back on pace in a month or two.

i don't think i broke it? imean it hurts really bad and i cant walk on it but i'm praying it's just badly hurt and not broken 🀞no major bruising yet

Poor toesie… unless it’s a compound fracture and needs to be stitched, not much can be done…ibuprofen if swollen

ty ser appreciate your service πŸ«‘πŸ’œπŸ«‚

/me sends healing virtual toe kisses 😽

R.I.C.E. = rest, ice, compression, elevation. A tight band-aid for compression. Good luck.
