Oh here's my sad story...
3 weeks ago I fell and hurt my big toe really bad. It was not broken but the bone was badly bruised. So, the doc said the pain will go away in about 6 WEEKS!!!!! Also he said that I can swim but very carefully after the cut (got a chunk of the meat out) heels. (I can point the toe but it can not be curled due to incredible pain)
So, here are my questions:
1. Since I mostly swim breaststroke will it mess up the toe, if so, what stroke is better?
2. The cut is dry but after taking a shower it gets nasty looking, should I protect it with the band aid and a sock when swimming?
3. Been out of water for 3 weeks.... have a lessons tomorrow, should I skip a lesson and practice myself, or is it better to start again under my instructor's eye?
4. Any good remedies for hurtie toes? :)
Thank you all so much, I appreciate your help!
