Hi, i have a pain around the joint of my big toe and i dont know what the cause is. but sometimes it pains more after wear heels.

Sesamoiditis: If you have pain around your big toe that gets worse after wearing heels, you may be experiencing pain from either sesamoiditis or bunion pain. You will have to see a Podiatrist in order to be evaluated clinically. Both can be treated conservatively, with rest, ice and changing your shoe gear, and possibly getting custom molded orthotics.
