A member asked:
What could cause ongoing pain in my big toe for months?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Time to see a doctor: A person with ongoing pain in a toe for several months should see a doctor, to figure out if there is arthritis, a bone fracture, gout, or other disorder. A primary care doctor, an orthopedic doctor, a rheumatologist, or a podiatrist, can all be helpful.

Big toe pain: Here again it could be several things - undiagnosed fracture, subchondral fracture, tendonitis, bone spur, ingrown nail, subungual exostosis, fungal nail, spin callous, excessive pronation with pressure on the toe, etc. An exam and xray by a podiatrist will give you the help you seek. Good luck !
