Common causes of pain in the big toe include gout, bunions or ingrown toenails, according to WebMD. Hammer or claw toe, turf toe, sesamoid fractures, corns, and calluses may also cause pain in the big toe.
Not everyone experiences these symptoms, but most sufferers complain of pain at the base of the big toe. If you have recently stubbed or jammed your toe, you may have turf toe. Pain and other symptoms are usually mild at first, but they gradually worsen.
