At least you were doing something respectable.

I broke my little toe last week because i was running from the kitchen of my apt to the bedroom to answer my phone. Instead, I caught the toe on my bookcase.

now that's an OWCHI

Are you going to tough it out or go to the DR? Try alternating ice and heat on it tonight for the pain - and I guess you could drink a few adult beverages to "relax" :)

well I woke up this morning and I can move it around fairly good. It's still REALLY sore and the swelling has gone down some. It's not too much bigger than my right hand/wrist anymore. Showering was still quite painful though. I guess that mentioning that I am left handed (and this is my left wrist) might explain why I was so worried about this. I am what some might call "right hand retarded." Oh well...typing kind or hurts this morning so I'll try not to do too much. Now I just have to hope that I can somehow get one of the available Mavs/Spurs tickets because they will last all of about 1 minute once they go on sale at 10AM.

Hold your elbow up in the air with your wrist straight up in the air and bump your elbow. If the pain shoots up your wrist to your hand their is a chance it is fractured. Even it is sprained, as much as it sounds like you are in pain it wouldnt be a bad idea to go to walmart or somewhere and get one of those splints to give you some suport. If you are swollen even a little bit do not use heat. Good luck with your tickets and hope you get better soon.
