Brief Answer:
Can be arthritis or gout.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the large toe can be due to arthritis, gout, tendonitis or an injury. Taking a mild pain killer and doing a hot compress will help in bringing relief. You can see if these simple measures help. Otherwise consult an orthopedician to check blood uric acid levels and an X-ray of the affected area.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
