caddyman: (Hattie)

Hopalong

Last night I managed to stub my toe while we were putting the laundry away. I’m not quite sure how I managed that, but there you go. After the initial squeal of pain, it subsided and that was that. When I went to bed, I was far more concerned about the dull ache in my Achilles tendons, which, perversely, seem fine this morning. My toe, however, is throbbing like billy-o. Not too badly in the great scheme of things, and not enough to make me limp when I walk, but certainly just enough in constancy and underlying discomfort to make me continually aware of it.

It is most distracting; in fact I may take a paracetamol just to stop me thinking about it. Clearly I sprained it a little more than I thought I had.

I've done this kind of thing on more than one occasion. JUst tape the hurt toe to the toe next to it with surgical tape and it should help with the mending.
