All you can do is be careful with it and take something for the pain

Not a doctor, but recently set a broken toe of my own, We have no qualified Doctors down here. Likely cut off the wrong foot? I am tempted to get an X-ray to see how I did. Seems Fine.
Needs to be set in proper position, and kept imobilized.

I got broken bones in my toes a few years ago.
Got them x rayed and took the x-rays to a bone specialist that the emergency room told me to take them to. All he said was I everything I already knew. Three broken bones. Nothing you can do about it. Do you want pain medicine? And gave me a bill for * hundred and some dollars just to look at the x ray and say those things.

NOhelp4u, were you ever curious to get an X-ray to see how you did? That could cost an arm and a leg(figuratively speaking)
