I think i may have broken mine on my right foot yesterday during tryouts, and if so how long before you were able to play comfortably. I am going to get an x-ray tomorrow to see what is wrong, and hopefully it is not broken.

Tape it up, put on an extra sock and play through the pain. You don't want to miss your sophomore year.

Both the big and contiguous. As to when able to comfortably play again, four to five months.

Still bother me at times, to this day (depending upon footwear, posture, stress, etc.).

I shattered the joint in my big toe playing in high school. Had surgery to put a temporary pin in. I remember the pin being in my toe for at least 6 weeks.

I broke my big toe kicking a bowling ball while I was really, really drunk...

Not my proudest moment.
