Hello! I went on vacation and *think* I broke my toe. It is pretty uncomfortable to walk on, and I am definitely not able to run. I was hoping someone had some exercise suggestions for me while my foot heals?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Suggestions Please!
last year at thanksgiving I had a log thrown and hit my foot and I think I broke a toe.
I just hobbled around and tried to do normal stuff but lower impact.
It hurt for months but finally stopped hurting. Now I have what I call an elephant toe where the end of it curl under but it does not hurt anymore.
I don't know if there is anything a DR can do because I did not see one. My husband tried to minimize it and say it was not broke because someone in his family had done it to me (On accicent I guess). But it sure did hurt.

Yes! With a guest pass once at a 24 Hour Fitness, I spotted a piece of cardio equipment called TORSO. It looked like a recumbent bike where you use your arms instead of your legs to pedal. Worth checking out!Sheila, Founder of SugarFreeSheila.com

Re: Suggestions Please!
Anything upper body would be fine to do. Leg lifts or any other lower body exercises that won't put a strain on your foot might be okay too.
But if I were you, I'd see what kind of lower body activity is okay for you to do.
