I feel tremendous shooting pain in my right toe near the toe nail when i stretch my right foot or press the nerve going to big toe above the in-step?

Nerve irritation: Sounds like something is irritating the nerve to your great toe. This can be a neuroma or soft tissue swelling in the area causing compression on the nerve. I suggest having a foot doctor look at it.
