I have broken both my little toes..at sepate times and years apart. The first time I went to the Drs., they taped it to the one next to it, then taped the whole end of my foot, gave me crutches and told me to stay off it for ten days. My oldest one was 18 mos old (he is now 50), my husband was overseas and I am suppose to stay off it? That lasted until I got home. I did leave it bandaged up for the three days but had to take a bath. When I took the bandages of, ALL my toes were black and blue and so sore. It seemds like it took forever for me to be able to get around on it.
The second broke toe happened just a few years ago. I did go to the Dr but they said there was nothing to do with it except to wear shoes with a good solid sole. Everything was all better in a few weeks.
