What is "turf toe" and how would one get this medical condition?
Turf toe is a condition of pain at the base of the big toe, located at the ball of the foot. Turf toe is usually caused from either jamming the toe, or pushing off repeatedly when running or jumping. The most common complaint is pain at the base of the toe.
JThomp,
Thanks for your comment. I guess that really explains why basketball and football players get this condition. Is it chronic?
You are very welcome Paul. Yes, most of the time it leads to this.
As a former dancer I know turf toe. It comes from dancing, athletics, runners and others. 2000-4000 of fish oil,soak in mint oil. Get a good foot massage. Take skeletal strength & calcium. If you want any further info or products write me at renewalof48@yahoo.com.
Blessings.
Dr. copeland
Thanks for the information, doctor. I was just interested because I have read about some football and basketball players not being able to play because of turf toe.
