Could that be a broken toe?

"I think I'll cancel our excursion today," Hubby told Simone. Simone nodded dejectedly. She'd looked forward to swimming with stingrays but B's limp had gotten worse and some definite bruising showed around the knuckle of his toe. "I'll take him to the ship's infirmary," said Simone. A cruise ship staff member kindly brought a wheelchair for B and together, they travelled down to the lowest level of the ship where a doctor examined the little guy. "It's unlikely but there could be a fracture," the doctor declared. He ordered a couple of x-rays of the foot to make sure and prescribed an analgesic cream and painkiller. B walked out of the infirmary with a verdict of bad bruising but by then, they'd most definitely missed their excursion. So what could they do with their time in Grand Cayman? "Beach!" Cried Simone and B in unison (but only after the requisite Pina Colada please!).
