Exercise with sprained toe

So my plans this week on my days off was to go for 2 decent walks but the night before I really stubbed my toe bad to the point that we thought it may be broken. Tried a small walk but too sore for now.

Is there any little exercises I can maybe do just now to keep me going or best to leave it a few days?

    Jus rest, till it recovers. Last thing you want to do is prolong your recovery.

    Yeah I was thinking that just dont want to get out of the 'groove' of doing something.

    You could probably do upper body and core workouts but I agree, rest.

    When I sprained my foot badly, I stuck with spinning and mat Pilates (avoiding planks and other positions where you're on your toes) until I could walk without any pain.
