Re: Burning sensation in big toe

I can not give you a specific cause as I have not examined you. When I have a patient present with these symptoms, I will x-ray to rule out a fracture, infection or tumor. I will check for an ingrown nail, I will do a neurological check. I will carefully go over the history and look for things like diabetes, sciatic nerve problems, other neurological problems such as neuropathy.

As you may guess, this is not so simple to diagnose. I suggest you see a podiatrist.

The Active Ankle offers flexibility and security. It will feel different from anything you have ever worn for ankle protection. The hinge allows freedom of motion that you may not be accustomed to. Do not mistake this freedom of movement for lack of support. A leading university said, the Active Ankle provides more support (inversion) than the leading air-stirrup brace, the leading lace-up brace, or a tape job.
