      Are you sure you're supposed to take those orally?

              Not sure why really, but I am at work at the moment and its not really that urgent, there is nothing they can really do for me, except for telling me what is wrong.

                True.....on the other hand (or foot)....it's a legit reason for skipping out early.

                    Ouch that is one toe I haven't broken. rich if it is broken and they do allow you to run remember to take your NASID before you train and/or compete and ice the toe immediastely after to control the swelling. Ask them about taping the big toe too while you are there.
                    BTW hoiw did you do it?

                          Now, see...I was wondering the same question.


                          I broke my little toe when I was pregnant with my youngest...I tripped pushing a mattress down a flight of stairs. No, it wasn't the smartest thing to do. Anyways....My hubby taped my two little toes together and now I can do the "Vulcan" (from Star Trek) sign. See...there comes possibilities of talent with such instances as these.

                          Drink lots of fluids to help the fluid go through your body

                          Clap with your hands...not your feet

                          Dance while sitting in your chair....and not on your feet


                          Sure hope the pain goes away soon before your big race. But if it doesn't, I hope you take good care of your feet and let them rest before the next one.

                            Good Morning Rich! Just checking in to see how everything came out last night at emergency - did they send you for xrays? Is your toe broken? Did they give you pain killers? How are you feeling today?

                              I dont know how I did it, but the pain and swelling is still there. The nurse doesn't think its broken. She thinks I have gout! but it seems a little coincidental to me that it started hurting the day after a long run, and that I had the same pain the week before again a day after another run.

                                toe pain after long runs is a very normal complaint.

                                did she draw blood to see if indeed you do have gout?
