Which Toe email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose7 months ago

do you hate hurting the most?

I just ripped the side of my baby toe on the baseboard of a short wall and i am trying to decide if this is worse then the time I ran over my big toe with a door.

What do you think? Which toe is worse?

What is the worst thing that ever happened to one of your toes?

Hard question, I don't have a lot of experience in hurting my toes and if I do hurt them it's usually because my baby toe is jammed somewhere in my shoes:S
The worst pain I experienced was a strand of wood from a braided chair (hope you know what I mean) which was jammed straight up my big toe (front side in) and went in for a couple of cm. Getting it out hurt like hell and I was like 10 years old.
My dad pulled it out and my mom had to hold me down.

I guess this would be equally painfull in other toes, but luckily I don't have any comparisation material on that one! Phew..


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

OUCH! that sounds mighty painful!

It made me recall the time i stepped on a sewing needle that was hiding in a shag rug..


myLot reputation of 98/100. cyberfluf (1345)   ranked 53 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

I get goosebumps just thinking about how that must have felt! This discussion made me realise how sensitive ones toes are, and how well we must choose our footwear to protect them.

I once got a large shard of glass in one of my platform boots when I was going out, if I had been wearing flats it would surely have penetrated my foot.
Thank God for platform shoes and boots:)


myLot reputation of 75/100. caroliewrites (133)  7 months ago

owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwie... Yikes. All this reminds me of a time, I think I was about ten and told NOT to play with Mom's sewing machine. Welllllllll...... I ran the needle through my index finger and my mom came running ( I was howling.lol) and had to first get the needle out of the machine and then pull it out of my finger...OUCHIE!!

ouch! That's a bummer about your toe. Is it bleeding?

I have had toe catastrophies before but I can't think of any specific off hand now.

The baby toe seems to be more fragile, so I would think it would hurt more, but if I slammed a door on my big toe, I might think differently.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

yes,:( it was bleeding.. HEY! maybe i lost weight!

The time i ran over my big toe was bad.. it looked like I had planed it.. but this is pretty rotten too.

Maybe i'll have a better idea when i try to wear my boots.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Do you have to wear your boots today???


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Well, we have over a foot of new snow, on top of a foot that feel this week. I could wear my platform shoes I suppose. I don't imagine they'll feel to comfortable either.

Do you get snow where you are?


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

This is only going to be my second winter here, and so far it's only been cold enough maybe three or four times, but it has not snowed. They say we might get a flurry or two on thursday, but I doubt it will really happen.

It did snow a few times last winter.

Speaking of snow, my nieces (ages 3 and 6) who live in Florida, saw snow this weekend for the first time at my uncle's wedding in Michigan. My mom said they were thrilled to death. I was sorry to have missed seeing them enjoy it.

I think each toe is equally as painful as the other when hurt.
I chopped the side off my big toe.
I was pulling a bed apart. It was the old type that had the stretchy coiled springs.
I could not reach one of the nuts so I gave the base a little yank.
Well low and behold the entire thing sprang apart.
I am very lucky it sprang down and chopped my toe, instead of hitting me in the face.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Oh Goodie! That sounds awful! Hee, i remember having an old iron bed with the springy coils. It made an awesome squeaky noise when i jumped on it.


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

As long as that was all you were doing on it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

This whole discussion is making me a little queasy!


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Oh D, is you are queasy now, how are you going to cope with your new hubby.
Who do you think he is going to run to, to fix him up when he falls off his skateboard and scrapes his knees.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

OH D, you arent supposed to be queasy, at least not for a couple more months.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Uhhh...Curly? Do you know something I don't about my state of health??????

Are you telling me this recent weight gain is not xmas cookies?


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

D, is there something you are not telling me.
Do we or do we not have xmas cookies in the oven.LMAO


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

I thought they were xmas cookies, goodie. Curly seems to think there might be something else going on. I'll have to investigate.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Why D! Are you saying you didnt wait? I am shocked!!

Frankly, i always got sick with in a week. And stayed that way the whole time.. b;eh.. I think I am allergic to it.


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Well gee D, you either have xmas cookies baking in the oven, or you are just gaining weight.
I would prefer the weight gain from cookies baking in the oven.
What lovely little xmas cookies you shall have.

Hey CurlyRed, we will have to organise a xmas cookie shower now.
Gee a wedding a birthday and now a xmas cookie shower.
We are going to be busy.
Do you have names picked out for your xmas cookies yet D.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Sugar and Spice


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Aww such cute names. Can I be one of the godmothers please.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Of course you can, Goodie.:) I was going to ask but wasn't sure you'd be interested.


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

I would have been so hurt and upset, if you had not asked me.
Such cute names, they are going to be just beautiful, just like their mummy.
It makes me want to bake some xmas cookies now.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

you know, there are not actually any christmas cookies in the oven just yet. but, when there are, you are definitley the god mother, and they will be sugar and spice.:)


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Oh Dear me, sorry I got caught up in CurlyReds excitement.
I was thinking I would love to bake some xmas cookie and they would be called Nutmeg and Cinnamon.
But alas I only have the oven, no ingredients.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5595)   ranked 3 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

nutmeg and cinnamon! that's perfect. i was trying to think of what went with cinnamon. i was thinking maybe ginger, but i like yours better.


myLot reputation of 91/100. Goodie123 (6203)   ranked 33 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Yes I much prefer Nutmeg also.
Ginger is quite common I feel.

Ouch! Bashing one's toe, especially the pinky toe, really hurts!

I think that I dread hitting the little toe the most, especially if it's cold. I once dropped two railroad ties on my big toe. Smashed that sucker flat. Knocked the toenail right off. I think my toe was in shock because I never felt a thing. It looked bad and it scared me, but it didn't hurt.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Holy crap! That sounds horrible! Your poor toe! You just made mine feel better.


myLot reputation of 94/100. Kashmeresmycat (683)   ranked 63 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Oh Trans, I have quite the imagination and now I'm ready to puke, that had to hurt afterwards!...eewwwwyoowww.


myLot reputation of 99/100. PurpleTeddyBear (3207)   ranked 67 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

Owie! That does sound really painful Trans!

5. myLot reputation of 81/100. cheesehater (1231)   ranked 31 out of 67 in nose   7 months ago

I think the toe that would be the worst to hurt, rip, tear or otherwise damage would be my cameltoe.

I have hurt other toes by getting them caught in the spokes of a friends bicycle while I was riding on the handlebars. I needed stitches in my head, foot and arm. I think it was thirty-five total if I remember correctly. I also broke two toes and lost one toenail. But Curly... that toe accident would be considered minor compared to the situation described in my first sentance.


myLot reputation of 97/100. CurlyRed (2229)   ranked 2 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

HA!

You know, i have lost my pedals while riding a boys bike, and I must concur it is quite painful. Even for a woman.


myLot reputation of 95/100. xboxboy (1276)   ranked 8 out of 67 in nose  7 months ago

lol! you have to get best response for that! i cannot believe i did not twig to camel toe! im never coming on mylot sober again!

 
6. myLot reputation of 81/100. zigzagbuddha (993)   ranked 24 out of 67 in nose   7 months ago

Jeez! This discussion has me shuddering - I'm almost sorry I didn't respond to it from my email account! I can't take any pain at all! Mentally, emotionally, or physically... whether it's my own pain OR someone else's. I almost need to go lie down!!

I think the little toe hurts the most though. Although I had an experience with the second toe that I wouldn't want to go through again.

I was wearing a silver salamander toe ring that my sister had got me for good luck. I turned from the sink in a mad dash for the telephone and slammed my toe into a huge gothic mirror I had leaning up against the wall waiting to be hung.

It broke the toe, which immediately starting swelling to elephantine proportion... and the ring wasn't swelling with it. I finally managed to cut it with a pair of cuticle scissors, and then crawled to the door and sprawled there on my belly sucking down the fresh air to keep from fainting.

Next time my sister gives me anything for good luck I'm gonna tell her to keep it!

i think everybody hurts there toes.


I worst time is when my grandpa and I were splitting wood and a huge uncut log fell and broke all 5 of my toes. they all turned purple, and i had to have a cast on my leg.

 
8. myLot reputation of 97/100. Stiletto (3095)   7 months ago

I've only ever really hurt one toe and that was my big toe on my right foot. I was wearing wedge sandals which were pretty high I admit - fell off my shoe and split the top of my big toe open and lifted the nail up. Blood everywhere and what's worse is it was the middle of the day in a busy high street so I had to walk home leaving a trail of blood behind me. Even worse my shoe was ruined because the blood stained the leather strap and I couldn't get the marks out AND they were new!

The nail was wiggling about but it didn't fall off straight away, it was still attached at one corner and I was too grossed out by it to pull it right off (are you feeling sick yet??) so I just bandaged it up for a couple of days. Then after I took the bandage off it was maybe another few days before the nail fell right off. Toes look crazy without nails on them. Took ages to grow back - it was at least 8 or 9 months before my toe looked normal again.
