Taping up a broken toe?

I hurt my foot pretty badly a month ago, and it healed up except for the middle toe - which is still swollen and tender. So after research, I'm sure it's broken. I bought some adhesive tape you use on gauze and taped the three middle toes to immobilize the middle one. Is that ok? And I bought some ballet flats to wear for a couple weeks. Unfortunately I work heels to work the last two weeks without realizing my toe was probably broken, so I'm sure that set it back.
