Pain behind toes..

[Genes]

while driving along yesterday, for work, i suddenly felt painful at the toe area. when i got home, checked, found the area behind middle toe to be red and swollen. i do not remember kicking anything or having anything dropping on my foot. this just happened like out of thin air. is anyone able to suggest what caused it, and how should i go about getting it treated?

 

i am actually thinking of going to a chinese sinseh. any recommendations for a good one, preferably in the west? thanks all.

middle toe as in #3, which ever way you count it?

 

suddenly pain and then red?? oh dear... jialat.

 

 

 

 

when was the last time you washed your feet/socks/shoes, have green odor fumes wafting from them or not? probably a disgusting bug bite.

No bite marks? No cuts? No recollection of spraining your toe? If the swollen or inflammation happen without hurting yourself externally, could be gout.

i am under the impression that gout hits the ankle most often?

Most common is the big toe according internet search. But it can be anywhere. I got it under my arch before and some other parts of the feet. See a doc for urine test for uric acid.
