| Mental note: don't curl toes! |
[Apr. 15th, 2008|01:37 pm] |
I curl my toes fairly frequently. It's a habit I picked up from winter camping and, well, flexing my feet is kinda like cracking knuckles for other people: it feels good and I feel stuff almost "crack". (I blame being a runner)
However, I broke my big toe on trail a week and a half ago, and, well, it still hurts. So, mental note: Don't curl toes on left foot!1

sounds like you'll have to use your other foot until it heals!!
Ouch! I thought it was a warning to all, like "Curling toes causes cancer!" but just a reminder to yourself...;-) Ice ice ice baby!
Well, ok, when your foot isn't all hurt and stuff, curling your toes forward (as in, under your feet while you're sitting) stretches the tendons, and prevents that ugly thing in later life where the toes sort of poke upwards from the knuckle joint.
But yeah. Ow.
do you ever pop your toes?
it is one of my favorite habits. | |
