But broken toes turn a nice shades of color! I did mine in on piece of antique furniture as I was pacing in the formal living room (talking on phone). After seeing stars and wiping the tears from eyes, I realized toe was not moving and got an ice pack.
The red and swelling turned to purples and blues and almost black and then to lovely green and yellow. A make up artist could not have done any better. Toe is fine, furniture is kept away from when pacing.
You can look forward to pretty colors too.
