What could be causing my pinky toe to spasm randomly?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Couple of things: Often times injury with swelling will cause some twitching of the toe. Tight shoes can create spasms of the muscles due to the pressure.

Possible : Vitamin deficiency like magnesium or potassium. Recommend you see a foot doc who can rule that out along with any biomechanical possible cause.
