A common misperception is that a broken toe has no treatment options. It is most likely because fractured toes are not cast like other broken bones. However, there are several compelling reasons to have an injured toe evaluated by a podiatrist in Houston.
It’s critical to make sure a damaged toe is in good shape. If the toe is allowed to heal in an improper position, it may cause pain in the future. You could have recurring shoe problems and develop painful corn between your toes. Your Houston podiatrist will discuss ways to adjust the toe if it is not in the proper position. Don’t worry, the surgery for a broken toe is a rare necessity.
If your broken toe is in a decent position, Dr. Shobowale will go over what you need to do to keep it that way and ensure it heals properly.
