Weird curved toe causes pain walking. any idea why?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It is possible : That the curvature creates a bony prominence that gets pressure on it causing pain. Is there any skin lesion? Any irritaion that you notice, a corn perhaps? Sometimes, it can even cause the toenail to be ingrown. You can try self treating with a silicon toe sleeve. This will pad and protect. If pain persists see the podiatrist. Toe straightening procedures work quite nicely.

Ingrown toenails: This is most probably due to ingrown toenails, where the nail will cut into the skin and may cause an infection. Best to see your podiatrist as this may be an easy solution to your problem.
