some times my left toe have a huge pain and during day time it reduce slightly.
Brief Answer:
Possibility of gout
Detailed Answer:
Hello
I have studied your case,
As per your symptoms first possibility can be gout.
In gout there is accumulation of uric acid crystals in joint mainly foot. This leads to swelling and redness in foot.
This can also be due to repeated micro injury to toe.
Bunion may lead to nerve compression due stretching of tissue but extent of numbness will be less,
nerve compression is also a differential which can be due to spinal disc bulge, you may need clinical examination to rule out causes.
I will advise to do blood inv like complete blood count ,uric acid level, X XXXXXXX foot.
Till time take analgesic and neurotropic like methylcobalamin.
If gout is confirmed you may need medicine accordingly and diet restriction. Bunion causing discomfort need to be surgically managed.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
