red swollen toe

(2 discussions)

My husband’s 4rth toe is all red & very swollen.
It is very painful & the Dr. he went to the other day says she doesn’t know what is wrong with it. She said it wasn’t gout or arthritis. Had it x-rayed (not broken). It has been for one & one-half weeks now & no better. Any ideas what it could be. Thank you Marilyn

    My mother is 80 and her 4th toe had become painful, swollen and sensitive to pressure. She is unable to wear shoes and her doctor just said it was inflammed. After 5 days of antibiotics (she is still taking them) she says the initial pain has gone but the sensitivity is still there. Any suggestions?
