Ask the Foot Doc – Healing a Broken Toe
Question:
How long should a broken toe be bandaged for it to heal properly?
Answer:
The stability and severity of the toe fracture will determine the healing time. This can be evaluated by an x-ray. If stable and properly treated, most toe fractures will heal in about 4-6 weeks. Other factors that can affect the healing time of a broken bone include nutrition and smoking.
If you have a foot injury or suspect a toe fracture, call (425) 455-0936 to schedule an appointment. At CarePlus Foot and Ankle Specialists, we have digital x-rays to diagnose any fractures.
