Suggest Treatment For Shooting Pain In Toe

I keep getting a burning shooting pain in my toe on my left foot. It is the toe next to the baby toe. It goes from a shooting burning pain that last about 1 minute and other times it feels like someone if trying to pull the toenail off. It isn t constant, but when it comes it takes my breath away. Shoes doesn t affect it as there are times I get it when I am barefoot, and also there are times it wakes me up through the night.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Possible causes like gout or other forms of arthritis must be ruled out. Consult a rheumatologist and get evaluated. A serum uric acid should be checked.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
