I have my pinky toe broken. When can I start putting weight on it?

It is important to keep a broken toe as immobile as possible to promote healing. If walking on it or wearing a shoe increases pain or moves the toe, it is best to be cautious and continue using crutches for a few more days. Fractures in toes typically take around 3 to 6 weeks to heal, but a doctor's evaluation can provide more specific information on how to best manage your injury.
