My 32 year old streak has ended. Broke my big toe.
And went out in style on Easter.
For anyone wondering, I broke the left portion of my big toe by falling down three stairs and my toes curled under as I tried to stop myself. I let out a scream-realizing it felt way more than a sprain but didn’t want to believe it.
It felt like my nail or something was on fire and I grabbed an ice pack and went back to sleep to see how it was the next day. Felt the same when I woke up, more bruising happened, I limped most of the day, swam, and the next morning I finally went to get a boot since it is my big toe and realized I didn’t want to mess up my balance and take care of myself more.
Doc said 4-8 weeks healing process and I already knew nothing could really be done besides staying off of it but I would love to hear other peoples stories and what they did to help the process and what doesn’t help. Thank youuu
