What Could Cause Pain In The Feet And Joints Of The Toe In A 45-year-old?

Hello, I am 45 year old male. I have been having pain in my right foot. First it was my big toe joint on the inside of my foot. Very tender to the touch or if I bumped it. Would send frequent pain bursts into big toe. Now it also includes my littl toe. If I put pressure on my foot to pivot, my little toe will send shooting pain into my foot. I still have the big toe issue as well. Any ideas?

Hello,

This sounds to be an increasing level of uric acid. Kindly get this checked. As due to increase in the uric acid levels there might be symptoms of the foot pain, toe pain etc.

Monitoring the uric acid levels with the help of medicine should provide some relief. Consume more water and pass more urine to reduce the uric acid levels in the body.

Also, I will advise doing simple exercises at home to improve the strength in the muscles of the legs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
