Question 7

female 32 yrs old complain of bilateral pain in her toes of boths feet since 2 months and aldo she complain of been feel hot all the time even in wint?

Accepted Answer

Both feet =Nerve: Burning suggests nerve pain.  Since it is bilateral this might indicate more proximal involvement-such as lower back nerve impingement.  Though this possible could be in the foot, but I feel this is less likely.   Nerve conduction studies might shed some light on this.

A few things: Sharp pains in the toes can be due to arthritis, nerve irritation, injury, infection, ingrown nail, poor fitting shoes among many other things. You may need to see a podiatrist and get x-rays to narrow down the possibilities and start treatment.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Have it evaluated: I have see simple wounds from a similar event lead to a puss filled abscess within the complex layers of the foot. Hospitalization &amp; surgery were needed to drain the abscess &amp; begin antibiotic treatment. Three different germs were found. I would not ignore this, it sounds infected.
