My Big Toe Clicks. Do I Need To Go For X-ray ?

Hello. im 14 and my big toes click, apparently they have been since i was able to walk. i am rather worried about it.. i went to the doctor a while ago and he said it is because i am under-weight but im not. should i get an x-ray ? do you have any idea what it could be ?

Hi,
Thanks for query,
As many a time our fingers joints have clicking sounds doing particular movements and this has no significance,same way clicking sounds in your big toes are there.
But as it is there since you started walking may have some defects in the joints.Consult orthopedic and get diagnosed.
ok and bye.
