Flexor hallucis longus
Injuries to the flexor tendon of the big toe are a common type of injury in risk groups such as dancers (primarily ballet dancers), gymnasts and rock climbers. These groups of people are united by a significant overload of the flexor of the big toe when performing pushes and hooks, and standing on pointe shoes. The second name for this pathology is “dancer’s tendinitis.” In the rest of the population, these lesions are extremely rare. Since the tendon of the flexor pollicis longus runs in the fibro-osseous canal behind the medial malleolus and ankle joint, it appears to be thrown over the posterior process of the talus, like a rope thrown over a pulley.
When it is chronically traumatized, degenerative changes lead to its thickening and compaction, causing compression and pinching. So-called posterior ankle impingement may occur. If nodules appear in the thickness of the tendon, a symptom such as “trigger finger” may appear, when the bent thumb “snaps”, and it can only be straightened through pain and by applying significant force. With a long-term process, cicatricial fusion of the tendon with its canal is possible, which leads to pseudo-rigid deformation of the first metatarsophalangeal joint.
First of all, it is pain along the posterior-inner surface of the ankle joint. It is possible that the thumb may “snap” when it is bent. Crunching, crepitation along the posterior-inner surface of the ankle joint during active movements. On physical examination, pain is detected when the big toe is flexed against resistance, with forced plantar flexion in the ankle joint, while there is no pain in the area of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. To diagnose damage to the flexor hallucis longus tendon, it is advisable to perform an MRI, which will reveal an accumulation of fluid around the tendon at the level of the ankle joint and a change in the signal from the tendon itself.
Differential diagnosis of tendinitis of the flexor hallucis longus tendon is carried out with tendonitis of the peroneal muscles, fracture of the posterior process of the talus, posterior talocalcaneal coalition, osteoid osteoma of the talus and calcaneus.
With ruptures of the flexor hallucis longus tendon, in addition to acute pain and swelling along the posterior-inner surface of the ankle joint, severe weakness of the plantar flexion of the big toe is determined.
In case of acute ruptures, emergency surgical restoration of tendon integrity is indicated in a group of professional athletes and dancers. For the average person, surgical treatment is recommended only in case of damage to the tendons of both the short and long flexor of the big toe.
In case of tendinitis of the flexor tendon of the thumb, conservative treatment is recommended - rest, local cold, physiotherapy, stretch exercises. In addition, it is recommended to change the approach to training, pay more attention to warming up and stretching, wearing insoles and shoes with good arch support.
If these measures are ineffective for 3 months, the question of surgical treatment arises. The tendon is released, freed from adhesions, degenerated areas are removed, and synovectomy is performed. If an accessory triangular bone is identified, it is advisable to remove it.
For good visualization, the use of a tourniquet is recommended. A semicircular incision is made parallel to the posterior edge of the inner ankle. It is necessary to carefully isolate the neurovascular bundle and take it on a holder. Access to the tendon canal can be done both anteriorly and posteriorly in relation to the bundle. At this stage, it is possible to isolate the tendon; after careful examination and palpation, all nodes and adhesions are removed. If a triangular bone is found, it must be removed.
Removing the triangular bone significantly lengthens the rehabilitation period. After isolated tenolysis of the flexor pollicis longus tendon, weight bearing and walking are resolved immediately as the pain subsides. After removal of the triangular bone, up to 8-12 weeks of non-weight-bearing walking may be required.
Pain due to inflammation of the tendons.
Pain in the toes may be due to inflammation of the tendons. This can manifest itself as pain when walking, which subside with rest, as well as inflammation and numbness.

Arthritis
Joint damage. The prerequisites for the disease are infection, hypothermia, complications after an illness - a cold or flu. Possible previous injury to the lower extremity. With arthritis, acute pain appears at night.
The disease begins with damage to the big toe, covering the remaining toes. Arthritis leads to serious inflammatory processes. Treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs as prescribed by a doctor.
Arthritis of the feet
How do fingers hurt when there are problems in the spine?
This is numbness, tingling, goosebumps. There may also be problems with loss of sensitivity, “loss of” reflexes, as neurologists say.
Treatment of toes without determining the cause of the disease will not be effective since for each form of the disease, the prescription of treatment methods will vary. Medicines prescribed for arthrosis will never cure gout, and neurological pain in the fingers can only be eradicated by treating the back.

Stiff finger: causes and risk factors
Articular cartilage destruction occurs between the first metatarsal and the proximal phalanx of the big toe. It is not known exactly why some people develop the disease and others do not. Possible causes of arthrosis of the big toe are hereditary factors, trauma, inflammation, excessive stress and deformation. Sometimes stiffness is a complication of gout.
The following factors may contribute to the onset and progression of arthrosis of the first toe:
- Inappropriate, tight shoes
- Foot deformity
- Flat valgus foot
- Improper or excessive weight bearing, such as gait disturbances or excess weight
- Bone fractures and soft tissue inflammation.
- Gout
Prevention of toe diseases
Don't forget about prevention. There is no need for treatment only when the pain becomes unbearable. The main thing is to maintain regular hygiene and keep your feet clean. When walking, at rest, your legs should feel comfortable. Avoid excessively sweaty feet, as this promotes the growth of bacteria on the skin.
Use foot baths. They relieve fatigue and tension after a hard day. For pedicure, use individual scissors and files. Check the skin around your toes for hangnails. Prevention will prevent expensive treatment and negative consequences associated with complications. Take care of your health, take care of your feet, keep warm, be healthy.
Treatment
Treat yourself wisely. Therapy with folk remedies is allowed; if your finger has been hurting for a long time, consult a doctor. When symptoms appear, the patient is prescribed painkillers, local ointments that relieve tumors and swelling. For arthrosis, the patient benefits from physical therapy.
To get rid of the fungus, make baths with the addition of potassium permanganate, apply compresses soaked in apple cider vinegar. The rule to follow is a healthy lifestyle, moderate nutrition, more vegetables and fruits, a minimum of spicy, fatty, salty foods. During acute attacks, stay in bed.
Osteomyelitis
Osteomyelitis is an inflammation of the bone marrow of the joint, the cause of severe pain in the ring finger area. Delayed treatment leads to complications and decreased quality of life. If there are signs of illness, consult a doctor immediately.
Osteomyelitis requires hospitalization, the patient requires medical supervision. The disease occurs as a result of bacteria entering the bone tissue; it is not the finger that hurts, but the bones and joints. At the initial stage, osteomyelitis is similar to a cold, the symptoms are similar: fever, chills, malaise. It doesn't look scary, but don't self-medicate. The wrong approach will make the situation worse. Sometimes the disease ends in limb amputation.

Tight shoes
Deformation of the fingers is the cause of discomfort. It's about tight shoes. Choose shoes that fit your feet. Do not buy tight shoes in the hope of breaking them in, this will lead to dire consequences.
Wear shoes that allow your toes to feel comfortable while walking. Choose shoes made from natural materials.
Take care of your feet from a young age. If you experience pain of unknown origin, contact a professional. This is a surgeon, traumatologist, dermatologist, depending on the causes and symptoms.
Shoes pinch your toes
Diagnostics
What to do if your toes hurt? First of all, you should visit a doctor who will examine the diseased area and prescribe diagnostic measures to make a diagnosis. If you have a problem, you should visit a therapist, who, based on your medical history, will refer you to specialized specialists - a traumatologist, neurologist, rheumatologist or surgeon.
The main diagnostic methods used for pain in the lower extremities include:
- X-ray;
- computed tomography and MRI;
- Ultrasound;
- urine test to determine arthritis;
- general and biochemical blood tests;
- determination of uric acid level.
Prevention Tips
Care during the pedicure procedure will help avoid infection and the development of inflammatory processes. The nail plate should not be cut too deep or leave sharp corners that will injure the finger.
Comfortable shoes are the key to healthy feet; they should not be tight or cause discomfort or pain in the feet. High-quality material and the correct shape will avoid rubbing and curvature of the foot.
Excessive exercise is also not beneficial. When playing sports, it is important to correctly distribute the force and level of pressure on the legs.
