Why Do I Have Sharp Pain And Tingling Sensation My Foot Which Had A Toe Broken Years Ago?

I broke the toe next to my big toe in 1991 and never saw a doctor for it. My job requires constant standing and walking and the last few days my toe which looks almost like a hammertoe now, has been tingling and sending sharp pain through my foot. What can I do to fix it?

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you had the fracture of the meta tarsal of the finger and would have healed by its own. The recent pain might be due to the fracture or infection of the finger.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an X ray to find the condition.
If fracture is there a tape is to be tied with the side fingers. Other conditions are treated accordingly.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods till the pains are completely controlled.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days,and then periodically till the pain is under the controle.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
