No good mate, let's hope they get to the bottom of it soon.
I didn't realise I was on the money when I made that statement (giggle)

All jokes aside I hope your bottom is on a bike sooner than later.

Sounds like you might have broken it Kwacky, not that there is anything you can do if you have. Hurts like forty barstards though I know from experience.

Yep, the colouring and location of the bruising suggest it's broken, as does the pain.

Like you say there's not much you can do. I'm protecting as much as possible, that's about it for now.

Drugs, lots of drugs.

Is it your big toe? That's the one I did and it was a killer, it's amazing how much you use it to stand upright! Funny enough it was done on a motorbike. Dropped my mates XR185 riding in jandals (flip flops) when I was 14 and the raw end of a handle bar landed smack on my toe. Broke it and screwed up my toenail. It's still a Frankenstein toe/toenail to this day.

Yep, big toe, on the left side. Changing gears on the bike is entertaining.

The nurses In hospital told me that antibiotics just aren't as powerful as they used to be against infections anymore,hence the double doses and different types they give you at once now
Hope you get sorted soon jack,get as much rest as possible
