I have this too, more so since my reaction to Lisinopril.
I have spurs under the nail, and those tend to make the toe red
if the toe hits a shoe top. My right seems redder than the left, which was the one removed from my summer incident.
I assumed mine was due to the drug induced lupus I had. And my fingertips tend to redden up too... my doctor said that was a lupus sign as well.
It could be anything. If it throbs or swells, I'd get it looked at .
Gout is very painful, and you'd know if it were that. Females tend to get a Pseudogout, which is a calcium deposition, rather than uric acid which is true gout.
