What Is The Cause And Remedy For Painful Feet And Toes?
I ve had a lot of problems with my foot. I have had 2 separate xrays done about 6 months apart and both times was told they looked fine. I am still having issues and am curious what else it could be.it hurts constantly every day. The pain is on the outside of my foot from my little toe to my ankle and goes across the top of my foot to right where my big toes meets my foot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement, Dr. Saurabh Gupta's Response
Hi, Thanks for your query. From your description , pain over your feet and toes seems to be inflammatory in nature. It could be an acute attack of gout. I advice you to give you rest to the part affected, take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to reduce pain and inflammation and consult your doctor for thorough examination and rule out any infective cause.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
