Toe pain from scab, what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tight shoes?: A scab is a normal part of a healing boo boo. Using antibiotic ointment helps prevent the scab. If you have a scab on your toe and you have pain, it may be because your footwear is too tight in that area. Try wearing loser shoes until the scab goes away.
