so yesterday i broke my pinky toe. can't believe something so small can hurt so much. anyone have any experience with this? i am hoping it won't slow me down too much with my exercise. my exercise is walking, biking or the elliptical. anyone know if i will still be able to do these after a few days?

Sorry that's all I got.0 -
Depends on the break - I broke the one beside my pinky toe, and could barely hobble around for weeks. Could bike after about 7-8 days? It was incredibly sensitive for at least a year after.
Mine was a very bad spiral fracture though, so possibly worst case?0 -
according to the doc, it didn't seem bad. he thought it would heal in 2 weeks. but the thought of two weeks without exercising is bothering me...wait, did i just say that? never thought those words would come out of my mouth, i guess that's progress in itself... i can hobble around the house and stuff, and am hoping in two or three days it'll improve to the point where maybe i can bike or walk around the 'hood.
thanks for the input.0 -
I broke mine years ago. Thankfully the weather was nice, because I could not get a shoe on my foot. It took several weeks to heal. I think you will be fine with the bike and elliptical. Walking was difficult for me.0

Ouch!! I broke my middle toe awhile back. It was sore for a couple months. My advice would be to do swimming, biking, rowing or something that keeps the pressure off your toes!!0
