What Causes Pain In Hallucis Area Of Right Foot?

Posted on Sat, 12 Sep 2015

Question: I am having foot pain around hallucis on right foot for the last couple of months, i had visited orthopedic specialist and did X-ray for the right foot but no issue found, then i applied neem oil as well as Fast Relief ointments to get temporary relief so now there is itching on that area[HALLUCIS] and ad hoc pain but there is no complain while walking at all, could you help with the following:

1)Reason for having itching/pain on HALLUCIS area of right foot only as there is no injury

2)Is it due to blood circulation issue around that area

3)There is no problem while walking, sitting but only when pressing/touching on it so why is it so?

4)What is the correct line of treatment with steps as i am not taking any medicine

5)I am using flat heel shoes and changing socks every 2 days. Can it due to long working hours and sitting for 12hours daily.

May i request to please answer point by point to get the better understanding of the issue, in winters this area gets swollen with small - small red spots like mosquito bytes kind of.

So still its not clear the root cause of the same as itching/pain gets severe in winters as compare to summers.

Regards

Hello XXXXXXX

It is difficult to make diagnosis without proper diagnosis but may be It could be due to and muscle injury or tendon injury. details may be required.
2)Is it due to blood circulation issue around that area.
It may be due to blood circulation or localize inflammation.
You may observe any discoloration or change in the skin texture, colour, thickness etc.

3)There is no problem while walking, sitting but only when pressing/touching on it so why is it so?
some time symptoms may vary. It is good to and visit any physician for physical investigation. So that real cause of disease may be investigates.
We do have some patient who had similar complain but every time different diagnosis was found.
4)What is the correct line of treatment with steps as i am not taking any medicine.
Line of treatment may be confirmed only after the investigation of cause.
This is very early to decide the line of treatment.

5)I am using flat heel shoes and changing socks every 2 days. Can it due to long working hours and sitting for 12hours daily.
It can be a cause and can not be ignored. i can tell you initially there may be either injury or blood borne infection.
Injury may be of any reason or any type.
Till than i would suggest you to get lukewarm water treatment. Put your leg in lukewarm water for 15 minute. It may give some relief.

Apart from all this i have suggested some medicine in earlier query
i would suggest to start as prescribed
update me after 1 months

Hope this is clear to you
for and query feel free to ask
