sore big toe

(3 discussions)

my left big toe is very sore at the base of the nail. It is slightly swollen and red. My joint does not hurt. It starts to hurt while sleeping and tends to reside during the following day. This happened once last week and now again last night. It doesn’t look like an ingrown toenail. It is very painful to touch or push, but the pain goes away after a day with no signs it was ever there.

    My shoes aren’t too short. At least I don’t believe they are. I always wear sneakers and the toes seem to have plenty of room.

    Is this coming from a shoe that may be too short?

      my shoes aren’t too short. I most always wear sneakers and have plenty of toe space.
