What Is Causing Toe To Vibrate After Removing Tape From Broken Toe?

I broke my big toe 11 days ago and the hospital taped to the toe next to it for a week and I have been resting it. The tape was taken off 2 days ago and it has now started to "vibrate" every 10 minutes which is drivig me mad. Is this normal? Is it the nerves repairing?
