Causes of toe pain include:
  • Wearing shoes that do not fit properly. This can cause corns, bunions, ingrown toenails, hammer toe, plantar fasciitis and other foot problems which can cause severe foot pain.
  • Diabetes that is not properly diagnosed or properly treated, as well as, other cardiovascular diseases. This can cause, not just painful toes, but numbness as well.
  • Arthritis which can hit any part of the body and often in more than one place at a time. Toe pain is particularly prevalent with rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Gout (which is usually caused by an accumulation of uric acid in and around the joint of the big toe). Gout is is also referred to as gouty arthritis and is extremely painful. Gout is usually most painful in the joint of the large toe.
  • Prior injuries to the toes can cause toe pain. Toes that have been broken or sprained can result in permanent toe pain especially if not properly treated.

If you are a runner, than you are likely to experience toe pain. If this is happening to you while you are running the problem may be caused by the terrain on which you are running. In addition, you may want to check you running shoes. If the shoes you are running in are worn out, this may cause your feet to adjust improperly in the shoe and can lead toe pain. Runners usually experience toe pain in the middle toe.

There are bones that run from your toe joints to your arch. These bones are called the metatarsal bones and there are five metatarsal bones corresponding to each toe. During any activity, such as running or jumping, the weight of your body transfers to the metatarsal bones and to the toes. If you change your activities or the way you do them, the pressure changes and can lead to toe pain. In addition to changing your activities, ill fitting shoes and being overweight can also cause problems in the metatarsal bones and lead to toe pain. The shape of your foot, (i.e. a high arch) can also put more pressure on the metatarsal bones. If your second toe is longer than your big toe, this too can cause toe pain.

These are excellent. I was diagnosed with hammer toe and decided to give these a try. One of the BEST purchases ever. Great for Hammer Toe and Bunions. This has made a HUGE difference in my comfort level. I just bought a second pair for my sister!
-Jbrowne

As a yoga instructor, I highly recommend SmartToes. They are a simple yet profound way to help our posture and provide a greater chance for optimal alignment.
-Jessa Zinn, Brooklyn Yoga – NYC

I cannot believe the difference in just the last 2 weeks! I have them on as I type this so I can give you a glimpse of the feeling. They are soft and pliable, yet still strong enough. I highly recommend these for anyone who has hammer toes, like me, or other specific foot problems, or even if your feet are just “tired” all the time. It feels like a full body massage. Great product!
