a sudden shooting
pain in the big toe, can be referred from higher up.
I have this when my knee is acting up. I had a dislocated right knee almost 10 yrs ago. The pain went directly to my big toe on that foot. I finally went to a chiropractor and she adjusted my knee, and in one instant the pain stopped.
There are stretches she gave me to stretch out the hamstring tendons, which tend to pull the knee out of alignment, which help me keep it stable.
I can also put 1/2 Lidoderm on the back of my knee and stop the toe pain that way.
The feet can be very confusing! I have several issues with mine, in fact.
