Especially-bad stubbed toes often result in a fracture (a break in the toe's bone). In this case, it's usually necessary to receive an X-ray, cast, or foot brace. Signs of a fracture include: An audible crack or pop at the time of injury. A toe that visually appears bent, kinked, or crooked.
Foot care health centre. A broken toe, or fractured toe, is a common foot injury. Causes of a broken toe range from stubbing the toe, to dropping something on it, to sports injuries. A broken toe can take up to six weeks to heal. After the injury, pain, swelling or stiffness will occur. Bruising of the skin around the toe may also be noticeable. The toe may not look normal, and it may even look bent or deformed if the broken bone is out of place.
