my toe
i was at field hockey tryouts and a field hockey ball hit me really hard on my big toe. at first it wasn't bruised but everyday it keeps getting worse (more purple/blue-gross right?) it is just my toe nail not my actual toe. will my toe nail fall off? i'm really scared if that happens. what do i do? what should i put on it?

don't worry too much, I have never had my toenail fall off, but my friend's does like, every year cuz she's crazy and I dunno. anyways, it's not a huge deal. for now, keep a band aid on it. You can also soak your foot in hot water and epson salt. when and if it falls off just keep it bandaged up so you don't have to look at it, and it won't take as long as you think to grow back.

The same thing happened to me, sort of. I'm a dancer and i had a bad pair of pointe shoes, and they caused my big toe nail to turn purplish. Gross. It took a long time (close to 6 months!) for it to heal. It eventually just grew out. I don't know how bad your bruise is, so im not sure if it will be like mine. However, if it does fall off (and it would have to be pretty bad for that to happen) it should grow back.
