Continental Drift-Evidence. The evidence which gave rise to the theory of continental drift -- more correctly called plate tectonics -- includes the following: âº The coasts of the continents surrounding the Atlantic ocean could, if the continents were moved closer, fit together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Stubbed toes can cause extreme pain, especially in the first few minutes after the stubbing. A stubbed toe basically means a toe that has been knocked or hit against something, end on. Pain is almost inevitable, especially when pressing over the stubbed area and it can often be difficult to tell if your toe is broken or not. A stubbed toe may swell and can form a bruise, often under the nail.
A bruised toenail occurs as a result of damage to the underlying soft tissues or bone without a breakage of the skin. It is often characterized by rupturing of blood vessels, leaking blood into the surrounding soft tissues. Soak the toenail (or foot) in warm salty water several times each day (at least 3 days) and follow it up with a topical antibacterial cream such as bacitracin or Neosporin to help prevent infections as the bruise heals.
