Suggest Remedy For Soreness In Toe

My husband, 62, dropped a railroad tie on his foot two weeks ago. I told him to go to urgent care for xrays but he refused. Now, after two weeks, one toe is still extremely sore although not miscolored at all. Could it be broken? If so, is it too late now to do anything about it?

Hi,

It could be broken. Please get the X-ray done as soon possible. Till then apply ice pack, it will ease some pain.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
