          Wow all these years I have been doing this and you know what I have not found the art of seeing through the skin and knowing if a bone was broken myself ..I still require the use of technology .....


          oh well she probably has talent I never knew existed ...

          I think because you run you should be Xray'd for sure just to make sure ...

          Xrays show more than an evident fracture ...

          I would have Xrayed you that is for sure! stress fractures are common with runners...

          gout however is very painful!!! they usually do draw blood and give you some special meds that work for it because the usual stuff is not great when it comes to the pain of it.......

          but what do I know anyway huh????

          I hope your toe is better today ...I am so sympathetic of the pain!!!
          ..I broke a toe on the first day of my vacation one year and it is stunning how much those little things at the end of your body can hurt!!!!!

            She felt my toe and thought it wasnt broken, but having read up a little this morning on Gout, I do believe that is what it is. I have all of the symptoms.

                hey Rich even if it wasn't broken an Xray would show the gout cystals,since many times the uric acid can be normal in the blood even during an attack. If you didn't get any gout meds your crystals wouldn't go away just taking pain meds so if your toe is better ...
                Glad you are seeing your doc for it too.

                  I have read cherries are good for gout if you can tolerate cherries in your diet.

                    I am surprised she didn't have the xray done to rule out a fracture.

                    Sending lots of sympathy your way and I hope your toe heals up quickly!

                              Well, at least there's an upside to all of this (the drugs)! Sorry to hear you're feeling so bad. I hope it gets better QUICK and just turns out to be one of those inexplicable pains that you eventually forget completely because it never happens again. Keep popping those pills as long as you need them & put your foot up. Best wishes, Kim
