Suggest Treatment For Pains In Big Toe
I had pains in my big toe once in 4-8 months and use to be there for a day or two maximum. But this time pain persists for more than a week. Doctor advised to take Febustat 40 and pain relief tab. I have been taking this medicine since one week, but still paining near big toe. Please advice.

Hello
As you have pain in the toe from quite a long time I will advise getting the uric acid levels checked. So we can understand is it due to uric acid or something else. If you aren't diabetic I will advise you to do icing and then pick the marbles, petals with the toes to have exercised for the foot muscles and avoid weakness.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
