Question

There is a cut on my foot just above my big toe. I'm not feeling well. Is it ok to lay down? Or do I need to be seen?

Answer 1

Restless legs : This may be restless leg syndrome. I would advise that you see your physician, get the correct diagnosis, you may need to sleep a evaluation, get on the right therapy.

Answer 2

Raynaud's, possibly: In raynaud's phenomenon, fingers or toes turn white or blue in cold, then red when warmed.It is due to abnormal degree of constriction of arterioles (very small arteries).It can occur by itself, but can be associated with autoimmune diseases like systemic sclerosis. A complete history of your symptoms and a physical exam by your doctor along with blood tests should provide you w a definite answer.

Answer 3

Yes: You probably have a vasospsasm and should be tested for raynauds disease or phenomena.

Answer 4

Evolution reversal: It depends on what you are using the shoes for and how often you are wearing them. Likely, you have used shoes with similar soles and shock absorption for your whole life. If you switch suddenly to a different shoe construct, the intrinsic muscles of your feet have no time to adapt to the new mechanics. Try slow transition into them. 30 mins/day to start. If still hurts, system may not fit withyou.

Answer 5

Lack of support: Nike shox shoes are simply not supportive enough for you, there is too much flex in the arch of the shoe. The toes and arch cramps because they are trying to maintain your arch. You can try an over the counter super feet insert in your shoes to add support or change to a motion control/stability shoe like the brooks gts, beast. Or get custom orthotics for your feet.

Answer 6

Get an x-ray: To know for sure, u need an x-ray. You could also try to touch your toe with the end of a vibrating tuning fork. I warn you, if it is broken ... It will hurt like heck.

Answer 7

XRAY: The only way to tell for sure is with an x-ray. Signs of a fracture would include pain and swelling and stiffness around the fracture site.

Answer 8

X-ray : I agree with dr buford. Most fractures of the toes require minimal treatment as long as there is no clinical deformity. What you want to avoid however is an unrecognized dislocation which can require surgery if not treated promptly.

Answer 9

Shoes too tight: Maybe the shoes are too tight, and they constrict the circulation. Maybe you are wearing socks that cut off circulation too, causing you to go numb; or you may have something that is pushing against or compressing the nerves, that results in you going numb. If you are pushing on the balls of your feet, you may be compressing the nerves.

Answer 10

New shoes?: This happened to me too, was annoying, and i quit using the elliptical. You can try different shoes or shoe inserts with better arch support. No good way to know if this will help unless you give it a try. Try cross training - do elliptical but stop before the numbness starts, then move on to another machine, or go back and forth.

Answer 11

Bunion: Bunions need to be evaluated by a podiatrist. If yours is severe, you may need surgery to realign the bones and get proper function if the involved 1st metatarsalphalangeal joint. Seek out a good podiatrist in your area that will explain your condition and give you treatment options.

Answer 12

Have it evaluated.: Try wearing more comfortable shoes. See a specialist and get their professional advice.

Answer 13

Bunion Deformity: If the toe is drifting towards the 2nd toe then this is no doubt a bunion deformity/hallux valgus. Usually the great toe joint looks larger on the insider and can be painful with tighter shoes. This is a hereditary condition that can be corrected surgically.

Answer 14

More info needed: To receive an answer that will be more helpful, you need to give more information...Your health status, any problems such as gout, diabetes or blood pressure concerns. You should state how long it has been a problem and what you do to make it feel better. Also tells us what it looks like. Is it discolored, swollen or point tender. The more you tell the better the answer.
