What Causes

Toe Injury

Toe injuries are frequently caused by direct trauma, such as stubbing your toe, dropping a heavy object on your foot, or from the repetitive stress of certain sports. These incidents can lead to fractures, joint sprains (like "turf toe"), or painful blood blisters under the nail.

Symptoms

Symptoms include sharp pain, throbbing, noticeable swelling, and bruising on or around the toe. It may be painful to walk, bend the toe, or wear enclosed shoes. Damage to the toenail is also a common sign of a significant injury.

Treatment

Minor injuries can be managed with rest, ice, and "buddy-taping" the injured toe to its neighbour for support. However, a podiatrist should assess any suspected fracture or severe pain. They can provide immobilisation if needed and manage any associated damage to the toenail.
