What Could Be The Reason That The Second Toe Keeps Swelling With Pain And Redness ?

Hi, about 2 weeks ago, I noticed my second toee started bothering me. My husband thought I had an ingrown toenail but have never had that problem in the past. Sincwe then, it has began swelling a bit and a bit red on the entire toe. It is painful on the sides and behind above the second joint. I can see that the skin on the entire toe is tight as well. It is not painful all of the time but throbs, shoots pain or just plain painful most of the time. I can bend my toe and it doesnt hurt. The pain has awakened me from sleep as well and is painful when I hit the floor in the mornings. I have not had an trauma to this toe or region. Help!!

Hi, I have read your query & according to me you are suffering from renaud's disease .In this disease due to cold season, blood supply of that part decrease so start pain and swelling. For treatment , you should keep that foot warm with woolen socks. Also you should keep your foot in salt mixed lukewarm water for 15-20 minutes.After this you apply cream myolaxin-d & cream betasalic -s 6% twice a day.
