Ellie ran through the house and caught her foot on a corner. She cried for a few minutes and kept on going. Monday she was up and around. It looked fine other than a cut. No complaints from her. She asked me to wrap it for gym because there was a bruise. I wrapped it. She did 3 hours of gymnastics. Tripped twice walking(toes went under her). Got her home. Toe was swollen and purple. Called dr yesterday.
Ellie got her foot xrayed. I saw the x-rays. I don't know how to read them, but I saw the crack. I was told it was broken and to tape it and go on. 3 hours later the pediatrician called and said it is more extensive than they originally thought. We now have an appointment on Thursday because the fracture goes down into the base of the toe.
Needless to say, she won't be competiting in her first level four meets. I am not sure how long she will be out. She is sad.
