Earthworms prefer to eat at night, though, rather than in the day. That is why they are also called nightcrawlers. Besides adding nutrients to the soil, earthworms keep the soil healthy by tunneling. Worms do not have claws or paws to make tunnels, but they do have mouths. As they eat (and eat and eat), they create tunnels that keep the soil open and full of paths for water and air.
Pain from a broken toe can usually be controlled with over-the-counter pain medication. Buddy taping (taping the toe to an adjacent toe can be used to splint a fractured toe. Most broken toes heal without complications in six weeks.
Unless your toe is in fact broken, a stubbed toe should usually completely resolve in a matter of a couple of hours. Occasionally a worse stub may take 24-48 hours. If pain persists after this, then the toe may be broken or there may be blood under the nail causing pain (seen as a dark patch or bruise under the nail).
