Brief Answer:
Please, check your shoes!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported. The only possible cause of these symptoms is in appropriate footwear. Take the time to make sure the shoes you have been putting on for these past days is your true size and you have not been reporting any discomfort. If this is the case, please change the shoes and get more comfortable ones. If they are a new pair of shoes and seem comfortable enough, feel the inside to make sure there is no stitch/rough surface over the areas where the big toes sit.

In all, evaluate your footwear and get them adapted.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
