I stubbed my toe while I was on off on vacation...I put some ice on it...it seemed ok, I was hobbling for a few days
...but weeks later it still aches..bearable but aches nevertheless...
even if I broke the top of the toe, there's not a whole lot they can do about it right?

That can take a year or more to heal.

But, yes. If so, there is little you can do.
It will level off. It's not like it will feel as bad for the entire time.

Wonder if you did break something? Mine usually only hurt a few days. I recently made a toenail bleed by having it scraped and lifted up, from, under a door. I put a cotton ball and bandaid on it and refused to look at it for a few days. I think it all reattached.

Should be done healing in 6 weeks. Maybe you only have 2 more weeks to go? I sure hope it gets better soon. It sounds sore.

That might have caused my ingrown toenail, which started to become noticeable a few weeks after that.
