Big toe pain can sometimes extend from deep inside the joint; at other times it is localized to the nail. Whatever the cause, big toe pain makes it difficult for many people to remain active. The cause of big toe pain is often an underlying condition, such as gout, or a fracture resulting from trauma.
Numbness of the toes generally is a result of conditions that affect the nerves and/or blood vessels that supply the foot. Numbness of the toes is often associated with tingling. Numbness and tingling sensations in the toes is referred to as paresthesia of the toes. The most common cause of toe numbness is direct compression of the nerves of the foot from footwear from shoes. Numbness of the toe can occur because of injury to the foot, nerve damage (neuropathy), and poor circulation to the foot (such as with diabetes and peripheral vascular disease).
