What should people do after they stub their toe?
When you are done yelling and cursing, replace any torn skin back into it's original position. If you have any antibiotic ointment or creams, apply it and bandage it with a bandaid or bandage. If you think the toe may be broken (as with many toes V.S. furniture) seek medical advice for an x-ray and confirmation. Remember that flip-flops and shoes or even house shoes could have avoided this problem in the first place.
