Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Ortho eval indicated: A sharp stabbing pain in or near a joint in your big toe may be of concern for an injury to the big toe joint structures (cartilage, capsule, and ligaments). A thorough evaluation by an orthopedic surgeon or foot specialist will help uncover the cause of your pain. X-rays will likely be obtained as well as an exam. Avoid painful activities until you are evaluated
