Pain in left foot on the bottom between big toe and toe beside it and big toe is stiff feels like its jammed.?


Question:
I had shin splints back during summer softball season. Now that the splints have been gone for about two months I have this pain when a walk. Everytime I step and apply weight on my left foot it hurts around the front ball near the big toe. My big toe is stiff like its jammed. The pain feels like it is between the big toe and second toe. The pain only comes and goes but is there each day. This has been going on since the shin splints went away. I don't think it is gout because of the time length I've had this. Any ideas of what this could be?

Answers:
Sounds like classic Morton's Neuroma or sesamoiditis.

An x-ray may be necessary. In compensating for the shint splints, you probably stressed other muscles or tendons.
you should see your doctor, it could be caused by many things, none good.
