A member asked:

What can cause the stinging in the tip of my big toe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A few things: Sharp pains in the toes can be due to a bone spur, arthritis, nerve irritation, injury, 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.
