I can not bend the joint of my big toe (the joint closest to my toenail) and the top of my left foot hurts most of the time especially at night. why?

Toe pain: Many patients with arthritis will have difficulty bending one or more joints in the foot. If there was any injury in the past, that could be a reason now. Getting an exam in person or virtually will give you the best diagnosis and treatment plan!
