The screw that was in my foot was a couple inches long - I thought it was too big too especially for my pinkie toe! I still have it in the container they sent it home with me in.
I had 5 screws, smaller than yours, and a plate in my right ankle for a year. Had a pair of earrings made with two of the screws and the plate is on my key chain.
