'index' toe on the left for me too. i was coming down the stairs from the 'halbetage' in our group room, probably got distracted by a kid, stepped on the step the wrong way, slid down three and landed on my toes at the bottom. it happened around 9:30 and i thought i'd ice it a little and it'd go away. when it had gotten a bit worse rather than better by 1:30, when my shift was over, i went to the emergency room, they x-rayed it, and determined it was broken. the buddy-taped it to the toe next to it, and as long as i on't walk too much, it doesn't even really hurt.
it just really sucks that we have waldwoche next week, and i was looking forward to that, but i'm not sure if i can manage that much walking... :(
Oooooh, nasty! I had crutches for a while but that screwed my back up. But it might be easier to get around fast with crutches...? Hope it heals up all right!

I broke my left "index" toe in the waterslide in the Göttingen Spaßbad over ten years ago - not much fun.
