A member asked:
During football i was stepped on and bringing my toe towards my shin is extremely painful and there is a grinding feeling in the tendon?

Turf Toe: Grinding sensation is concerning. Best to see a doctor to check for a fracture or tendon rupture.

Damaged sheath...: It sounds like the tendon sheath or the sleeve like apparatus that envelops the tendon has been damaged. The tendon cannot glide freely and smoothly because of possible soft tissue disruption. It may go away without treatment, but probably best to have it evaluated.
