Toe Woe Redux

Yesterday afternoon, at home and barefoot, I bashed my left little toe on... something. I don't remember what, although at the time I undoubtedly knew. Today, the toe is badly bruised, and walking is a bit painful. If I didn't have three classes today, all of which were cancelled by Monday's holiday (so this is the only meeting this week), I'd be tempted to stay home soaking my foot in warm water. (Unfortunately, the only pot I have that my foot would fit in currently contains this week's dinner. I was able to put the front half of my foot into a smaller bowl for a while yesterday.)

It's possible the toe is broken, although not severely so - I have no difficulty (albeit some pain) moving it. The suggested treatment is to tape it to the neighboring toe. I'll have to see if I have anything that will serve that purpose.
