Regardless of whether you broke it or not, just immobilising it by taping it to the toe next to it would help. If it is broken, moving it around will impede its healing.
Drs won't do too much for a broken toe unless it's the big toe. 99% sure I broke mine stubbing it against the camphor chest I have, but I just taped it to the toe next to it for a few weeks/months, and it healed okay (there's still a bump either side but it works lol).
This is just my anecdotal experience.
Ah ok. Just dealing also with a lifted toenail issue. Only a minor and small one apparently so I’ve had to put dressing on.
Think part of the dressing is too fat as well because of the padding and too long.
I really hope it’s not broke or fractured.
