Oh, no. You are probably going to need x-rays to be sure the fracture does not extend into the joint. If it does, it can cause arthritis, pain and deformity and you may need it pinned to keep the joint healthy. If not, they may just put you in a hard-soled shoe or surgical shoe - course they may just do that anyway, depending upon the nature of the fx, even if it does articulate with the joint. Does it feel like you have "glass" in your toe when you try to move or press it, bear weight?
