Fracture in the toe of left leg
On Sunday I had a terrible sprain in my toe in the left leg with possibly a hairline fracture but I am not sure. I have shown a doctor who is advising me to tape two fingers. Is this the correct solution or should I go for plaster which will make me immobile because the plaster will be upto the knee
