What the hell is turf toe?

Any of our medical sources out there able to offer a description? I’ve heard this term for years… an injury which seems exclusive to football players, which seems to be extremely debilitating, slow to heal, and can cause early retirement (re: Jack Lambert).

Thanks. (you can tell I watched football this weekend. Please see the BBQ pit if you’d like to make a comment on John Madden)

Hopefully this’ll answer your question.

Well, shut my mouth. It’s also illegal to put squirrels down your pants for the purposes of gambling.
