There is no difference in meaning between âgreyâ and âgreyâ. They are just different adaptions from the origin word âgrÇ£gâ which contains both âaâ and âeâ. Americans most likely chose to use âaâ since the English were already using âeâ. Australians follow the English, using âgreyâ.
Once you have been diagnosed with a broken toe by a doctor, there are home remedies to care for the broken toe that can help decrease pain and swelling, including elevating the injured foot, icing the injured toe, and rest (avoid walking on the injured foot). Use crutches of needed. Broken toes usually take about six weeks to heal.
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).
