If you injured your "hallux," what might you have to wear for a while until it healed?

Answer A boot on your foot

Just like thumb describes our biggest finger, "hallux" is another word for "big toe". In general terms, when referring to other animals with four limbs, it is the innermost toe and is counted as digit number one. The big toe joint is called the hallux metatarsophalangeal.
