A doctor has provided 1 answer

Physical evaluation : This should be seen in person - the red area may be unrecognized trauma and a mild infection or sign of an infection in the joint which is more serious. Gout is also often a cause of great toe pain. Pain in the foot may also radiate from the back. An exam, and some imaging will likely be needed to recommend appropriate treatment
