  • Bonjour,

    Si votre orteil est cassé , pour en être sur il faut faire une radio. Cependant on ne sait pas faire grand chose pour un orteil cassé- mettre du froid et les bander pour essayer d'avoir moins de mouvements

    COUrage à vous

  • It would be interesting to contact a doctor to carry out an x-ray to see if your toe is broken or not.
