Ouch!!!

Looks like a fracture to me. A sprain wouldn't produce that level of brusing and swelling. At least, that's what my doctor said two months ago when I busted my ankle and it swelled up and went purple.

Yes. See what happens if you try to (fairly gently) bend the toe up.
If broken = plenty of pain when the bone edges rub against each other.
It helps to tape the toe to the next one to immobilize it.

Just tried that Janne, Definitely not broken, just badly bruised. Sore and uncomfortable, but not really painfull.

2016 toe break arrived this morning. Just in time for the Moot. Wife nearly fainted setting it.

Do you aim to break a different toe each time randomly, or do you have a pattern?

Also, the object you break them on, do they wary?

Thanks for the interest. 😀

See photos above. Fairly random toes and object, often pinky though.

I'm really not a clutz. I think the toes are made of chocolate now, easily broken.
