A member asked:
Could my feet be stressed? i had my feet checked she clipped my toenails and scraped edges and now my feet ache around the big toe and are red.

Possible infection: If the pain and redness s located around the big toe alone where the edges were "clipped..Scraped" could represent an early infection. See the doc who performed the procedure.

Possible infection: If you saw a doctor - let them know, if it was a pedicurist..See a doctor. You may require an antibiotic.
